If you like to use a number of different rigs and bait types, you’ll probably want a full set of rigging needles. All the needles here are stainless steel, colour coded and ergonomic, with soft touch handles.

Stix & Stringer (dark blue): Fox designed this needle specifically for threading PVA sticks directly onto hooklink. It also works as a stringer needle and features a 135mm steel shaft with a hinged gate closure. This lets you pull the hooklink loop through the PVA stick without tearing or laddering the PVA mesh. Also sold individually here.

Fine (green): this needle is perfect for small boilies and particle baits. This is the thinnest needle in the set, which means it won’t split smaller baits. The fine needle is your best option for hair rigging. Also sold individually here.

Heavy (red): a thick baiting needle made for large boilies and hard baits. If you’ve ever had a needle bend or snap when rigging a tiger nut, this is what you’ll wish you had. Also sold individually here.

Gated (yellow): this gate latch needle is ideal for splicing braided line or for general use when hair rigging boilies. Blunt, gated needles like this are also great when you’re trying not to split soft baits like corn. Also sold individually here.

Splicing (light blue): perfect for neatly splicing loops into leadcore and leaders. The micro engineered, hinged gate closes to capture the fibres, which prevents snagging. The low diameter also makes it useful for hair rigging small, soft baits. Also sold individually here.
