I stay in North Texas, some people refer it the beginning of tornado alley there's days. So it can be rough

some close up of the rigs i believe theyre all size 6 n 8s

Hey yall, thanks in advance Here's my problem, recently it's been very windy so the waters have been quiet rough. well after an hour i noticed my dark matter putty was gone from all 3 of my rigs. Fortunately i had a few dropshots, and after my session I still lost one. I'm on disabilitity money is tight and i can't be buying that expensive putty all the time, or at all it was a bday gift among other items. Thinking it through, I came up with this idea to shrinkwrap dropshots so I wont lose them again. I"m still learning about carp fishing, I use boilies mainly. Can this work ? if there's anythinmg i can do to make them work or jsut completely forget about this idea thanks again

so by trial n error, i started off with size 2 n 4 hooks...now i'm down to 6-8 I'm catching and hooking more carp then ever. I have noticed when I"m using a smaller size i'm losing fish especially 8 and 10s. Also what rigs can i make with size 10 other than hair rig?

Yeah i'm in the states Texas to be exact, and i get everything shipped from bigcarptackle, i'm using bait masters and nash northern specials, but the bait masters seemed to be more effective in my waters. and its also much softer than the nash ones. This is the 3rd time ordering the bait masters and they have all been a bit on the softer side. the issue i have once i use the pop up needle to insertthe rig the knot would make the hole bigger a chunk would break off the boilie

I'll look into the overhand loop knot thanks

Checking here i'ts soft n trap 30lbs and i'm using size 14mm, i'll admit sometimes it seems bulkier than other times, kinda inconsistent.

Hello fellow carpers, I"m new to the whole carp scene, and I have a question about the knots, I use the figure 8 knot for my hair rigs and sometimes the knot is too bulky for the boilie I end up breaking just to try to get the hair rig through. I"m wondering if there's any other options or any other suggestions or any type of micro knots available. I've looked around and tried the loop knot I got the same bulky knot Thanks in advance Pablo
