The Korda Choddy Hook is a purpose-built pattern specifically engineered for optimal performance with stiff hooklinks and popular rigs such as the Chod Rig and Hinged Stiff Rig. While its design excels in these advanced setups, its effectiveness extends to all pop-up presentations.
Its defining feature is the out-turned eye, which is crucial for achieving a smooth, continuous curve from a stiff hooklink to the hook, ensuring flawless rig mechanics and presentation. The overall shape is based on the iconic Wide Gape pattern, but the Choddy is constructed using a slightly thicker wire gauge, making it an incredibly strong and reliable hook. Its strength is attested to by anglers like Darrell Peck, who has landed carp exceeding 70lb on the size 8 version. It features a very sharp, slightly curved point and a micro barb precisely sized to ensure easy penetration yet provide a secure lock once set.
