Good morning all,only a week now before my 1st season as a carp angler so it's rig making/hooklength tying day today in preperation for my 1st session.Got the Fox rig video which explains in detail how to tie most basic rigs but still not sure when it comes to getting the hair right on a basic knotless knot hooklength.The 2 lakes i will be fishing most of the season are both very silty so i will be fishing light(1oz)running leads with a small flying backlead,3ft of tungsten tubing & at the business end 21/2ft of uncoated braid finished of with a small stick(with the braid pulled through with a baiting needle & the hook pushed up to the bottom of the stick so as to hopefully slow down everything so it settles on the silt,due to the length of the hooklength i know i will need to tighten up & pull back a couple of foot once the rig hits bottom to straighten everything out before slackening off as i intend fishing slack lines).Sorry to go on a bit but want to make sure i give as much detail about my intended rigs to hel;p give you a clear picture of what i'm trying to achieve,if i fish a single 14mm pop up critically balanced with a shot on the hair how do i get the hair length right & also,if i want to try a snowman rig on the other rod with 14mm baits how do i get the hair right for that rig?(appologies again if i've gone on a bit & confused anyone!)
