Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Carp anglers who like fishing solid PVA bags. The size range and supplied loader make it easy to build neat, repeatable parcels for different spots and bait amounts.
- Anglers fishing a mix of margins, short-range spots and longer chucks. The strong film is designed for casting and the four sizes let you scale the package to suit the swim.
Maybe skip if
- Anglers who rarely use PVA. A bag system only earns its keep if you regularly want to bundle feed around the hookbait.
- Anyone fishing extremely wet or rushed. Dry handling matters, so damp hands, sloppy bait or a wet tackle box can turn a simple fill into a proper faff.

Quick verdict
A cracking all-round PVA bag option
Korda Solidz bags give you a reliable way to present hookbait and feed together, whether you’re fishing a short margin flick or sending a little parcel towards the far bank.
The size range, colour coding, supplied loader and tough Japanese film make them dead handy. They’re not the cheapest bit of terminal tackle you’ll buy, but the tidy presentation and easy workflow make them proper good value for regular bag anglers.

High-quality Japanese film, UK manufacture and strong dry handling give the bags a reassuringly premium feel.
Rapid melting, clean presentation and suitability for short or long casts cover the main jobs very well.
A tight parcel of feed around the hookbait can make your presentation more accurate and concentrated, especially on clean spots.
The supplied loader, colour coding and resealable wallet remove a fair bit of the usual PVA faff.
The pack sizes and reusable workflow look fair for a well-made, versatile bag system, though heavy users will get through them quickly.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the Korda Solidz PVA Bags
There’s something properly satisfying about a well-made solid PVA bag. Everything’s tucked in tight, the hookbait sits right in the middle of the offering and the whole lot lands as one compact parcel. No loose bits spraying all over the swim. No wondering whether your freebies have separated from the rig. Korda Solidz are built for exactly that sort of tidy, confident presentation, mate.
The range comes in four sizes: XS, Small, Medium and Large. That’s a useful spread, because a tiny bag for a winter single needs a very different amount of bait to the bigger parcel you might want when carp are having it large. The packs are colour coded too, so you can grab the right size without squinting at tiny writing while the light’s fading and the rods are off.
The smaller XS and Small versions contain 25 bags per pack, while the Medium and Large packs contain 20. That makes sense for the amount of PVA film involved, although it’s worth keeping an eye on your supply if you’re bagging every chuck. Nothing worse than getting on a bite-time roll and finding you’ve only got two left in the wallet. Proper guttering.
Korda makes these in the UK using high-quality Japanese PVA film. The film is virtually pH neutral, completely aroma free and designed to melt rapidly underwater. That gives you a clean little pile of bait around the rig without adding a cheeky smell or leaving a load of gunk behind. For cautious carp, that neutral approach is a nice bit of reassurance.
The film is also made to be strong and resistant to tearing when handled dry. That matters more than it might sound. You’ll be filling, tying, squeezing out air, attaching the bag and then casting it. A flimsy bag can turn that whole process into a comedy of errors, especially when there’s a bit of distance involved or the bait has sharper particles in it.
Each pack includes a filling funnel or bag loader, which keeps the process much less faffy. You can get your chosen mix into the bag, settle it around the hookbait and create a compact parcel without fighting the opening like it owes you money. Keep your hands and the bait dry, though. PVA and moisture are still not best mates.
On the bank, the real strength of a solid bag is control. You can fish a small pile of pellets, crumb or other suitable feed directly around the hookbait, giving the carp something to home in on without carpeting the whole spot. That’s bob on for clean areas, little gravel patches and the margins where a tight presentation can make all the difference.
These bags are also suitable for short- and long-range casting. For deeper water or warmer conditions, Korda says they can be doubled, giving the parcel extra protection before it melts. You’ll use more bags doing that, naturally, but it’s a handy option when a single layer isn’t quite enough. Overall, Solidz are a versatile, tidy bit of terminal tackle for anglers who like their baiting accurate and their rigs looking the business.

Our take
Why these bags are worth a look
The big appeal is consistency. You can build a compact little package around the hookbait, get it out to your spot and know the PVA is designed to melt quickly without leaving residue behind.
That suits loads of carp fishing situations, from cold-water singles and tight little winter bags to a more generous feed parcel when the fish are on the munch. The four sizes mean you can match the bag to the swim, range and amount of bait rather than forcing everything into one format.
What you’re buying
A neat system rather than just a bag
Korda Solidz are available in XS, Small, Medium and Large, with each size colour coded for easy identification. The film is high-quality Japanese PVA, made in the UK into bags designed to handle dry filling and casting without tearing easily.
Underwater, the film is designed to melt rapidly and leave zero residue. It’s virtually pH neutral and completely aroma free, so your presentation stays focused on the bait and hookbait rather than adding an unwanted scent.
The supplied filling funnel or bag loader is a proper bonus. It helps you build a compact parcel with less messing about, while the resealable moisture-resistant wallet is handy for keeping spare bags protected in the tackle bag.
Worth knowing. Keep everything dry until the bag is filled, tied and ready to cast. If you’re fishing deep or in warm water, doubling the bags gives you extra protection, but it’ll obviously eat into your supply faster.
Best uses on the bank
For tidy, accurate bait placement
These suit carp anglers who want a small, concentrated feed parcel around the hookbait. XS and Small are the obvious choices for restrained offerings, colder conditions and cautious fish, while Medium and Large give you more room when the carp are properly on the munch.
They’re useful across a mix of swims. Flick one into the margins, drop a parcel onto a clean spot or send it towards the far bank. The strong film and compact shape are designed to cope with both short- and long-range casting.
They’re less ideal if you hardly ever use PVA, or if your fishing is always wet and rushed. Solid bags reward a bit of preparation. Get the bait dry, load the bag neatly and you’ll have a far more reliable presentation.
Quick answers
The bits anglers usually want to know
How many bags do you get? XS and Small packs contain 25 bags. Medium and Large packs contain 20. The exact amount varies by size because the larger bags use more film.
Are they suitable for long-range work? Yes. They’re designed for short- and long-range casting, with the tear-resistant dry film helping the filled parcel survive the journey to the spot.
Can you use them in warm or deep water? Yes. Korda says the bags can be doubled for those situations. That slows down the protection around the parcel, though you’ll use two bags for each presentation.
On paper
