Rigs

[carpangler96]

Hey, i have fished at a lake for 3 days and caught 2 fish, disappointing. Could someone tell me the latest rig which could up my catch rate plz, and the most Favorited bait as well. The lake potential is 36lb.

 

Thanks!

Hi..firstly,what rigs,baits,were you using to catch your two carp on,

And while we're at it, could somebody pop up to the lake and plumb his swim?

 

Sorry mate, sounds harsh but do you want a plate for the fish too?

you dont need "the latest rig" just stick to a simple one with a decent bait and look for where the fish are

There's a thread all about this somewhere, about doing everything for people LOL and just stick a simpe rig out on the fish, ????

Somebody hold me back

 

Just keep it simple, it isn't about rigs, its about location, getting the carp feeding and then putting a standard rig where they will feel comfortable taking it.

 

A whole thread on rigs:

is this a joke,whose re-registered for a laugh ????

 

 

either that or its a sad fact that natural selection has been badly effected by so many health and safety laws

[willi4692]

HA! All depends on the bait your using in how to set up the rig. Too broad a question I am afraid

[escrimador]

Hehe

 

There are no magic bullets! Occasionally the mags give the impression that if you use THE rig and/or THE bait you'll crack whatever water you're fishing. As everyone has pointed out getting to know your water, thinking about where the fish patrol, how, when and where they feed, discovering features etc, are far more important than using the latest super-rig.

 

And thank god too I reckon - there's a lifetime and more of learning and improving there which makes it fascinating and keeps your interest. How boring and unsatisfying would it be if all you had to do was take a rig off the shelf (so to speak) and you'd cracked it

what you need is a double bottom bait popped up exactly 2" on a semi fixed chod-bolt rig

Let me know where you're fishing and I'll drive over and tie some rigs and cast them out for you.

pre-baiting only works if you fish the same swim as you throw the bait into

If its any more or less than 2" you WON'T catch. Use a ruler just to be safe!
