Gardner Tackle Covert Tungsten Kicker Silt
Covert Tungsten Kickers are designed to dramatically improve rig performance by enhancing the speed and aggression of your hook’s turning action. The extended length helps force the hook point downward, creating stronger hook holds, particularly in the bottom lip. By moving the pivot point further away from the hook point, the kicker encourages the hook to penetrate deeper into the fish’s mouth, reducing the chances of hook pulls. Unlike shorter or bulkier rig components, these kickers improve hooking efficiency without narrowing the hook gape, maintaining full use of sharp, high-performance hooks. The Covert Tungsten design combines a long straight section with a subtle curve and a 90-degree hooklink exit angle, providing excellent control and consistent presentation. A slow taper allows for trimming and custom fitting to a wide range of hook patterns. XL Kickers measure 25mm and suit hook sizes 4 and up with a 1.45mm internal diameter. L Kickers are 24mm long, perfect for hooks sizes 4 to 6, with a 1mm internal diameter. Installation is simple—slide the kicker over the hooklink and onto the eye, aligning it with the hook point for maximum effect. Each pack contains 10 high-density tungsten polymer kickers.
