Korda medium sinkers matched with Korda 4mm beads. Perfect for top beads on a naked heli

You might be right there, the Korda Large Sinkers look like a better fit, still not tried them on the line though

They are a bit too small, they just about work if you squash the no trace bead a bit...

No, they are too small, to be honest they are rubbish as well not one of Bank Tackle's finest moments for sure, just like rock hard bits of rubber

However the Fox Tapered Mainline Sinkers/Stoppers look like they will be spot on, haven't tried them on the line yet but the bead sits nicely on sinker out of the packet so should work.

I think fox do a tapered tungsten sinker that will take the no trace beads

drennan float stop with a 5mm bead works or just a larger version of the stop, line breaks and it pulls straight off.
only need 1 bead then

That sounds like a crafty idea, bit of a faff though to be honest, I'm sure someone must know of a sinker that's available that does the job or is everyone just buying the 3 packs every time

Iv managed it by putting a tiny bit of putty on the line then putting shrink tube over the top and shrinking it down, seems to work OK.
