Inova Rapid Link Speed & Versatility for Rig Connection

The Inova Rapid Link (Size 4) is a high-strength, streamlined connector designed for the angler who values speed and efficiency. Whether you are fishing from the shore or a boat, these links serve as the perfect quick-connect point at either the top or the bottom of your rig. At Gerrys Fishing, we find these particularly useful for rapidly switching between different rig styles or for passing your mainline through rod guides before attaching your terminal tackle.

Rated at a massive 36kg (80lb) test, these links are small but incredibly powerful. They offer a secure, clip-and-go solution that eliminates the need for constant re-tying, ensuring you spend more time with your bait in the water and less time fumbling with knotsespecially during cold night sessions or fast-paced match scenarios.

Practical Engineering & Benefits

• Fast & Easy Operation: The simple, open-ended paperclip style design allows you to slide loops, swivels, or leads on and off in an instant without needing to open a difficult gate or latch.

• Streamlined Profile: Size 4 is compact enough to glide through most modern rod guides, making it easy to break down your rod without cutting your mainline every time.

• Heavy-Duty Strength: Despite its small size, the 80lb breaking strain makes it suitable for heavy-duty beachcasting and most UK boat fishing applications.

• Dual-Purpose Utility: Equally effective at the top of a rig (for connecting to the shock leader) or at the bottom (for attaching lead weights).

• Corrosion Resistant: Built from high-quality materials designed to withstand the harsh, abrasive nature of the saltwater environment.

Tactical Applications

The Rapid Link is a multi-tool for your terminal tackle setup:

• The Top of the Rig: Use a Rapid Link on the end of your shock leader. This allows you to swap from a 2-hook flapper to a large pulley rig in seconds as the tide or target species changes.

• Lead Attachment: Use it at the bottom of your rig to swap lead weights. If the tide picks up and your 5oz lead starts to move, you can instantly upgrade to a 6oz or 7oz grip lead.

• Lure Fishing: The Size 4 is robust enough to handle large plugs or spoons for Bass and Pollack, allowing for quick lure changes until you find the color the fish are hitting.

• Rigging Up: Thread your mainline through your rod rings, tie on a Rapid Link, and youre ready to clip on any pre-tied rig from your Rig Rapper Case instantly.

Gerrys Pro Tip: For maximum security when casting heavy leads at distance, you can slide a small piece of silicone tubing or a tight-fitting rig sleeve over the Rapid Link once your lead is attached. This locks the link and provides an extra layer of insurance against the link opening during an accidental ground-hit or a powerful pendulum cast
