ian257 Posted May 13, 2011 Report Posted May 13, 2011 Hi all, As per the title, is there a publication out there somewhere detailing many of the different rigs and how to tie them, as well as there intended use. I already have the Fox Guide to Modern Carp Fishing. Many thanks. Ian. Quote
salokcinnodrog Posted May 13, 2011 Report Posted May 13, 2011 Not new, but try Beekay Guide to Carp Rigs (may be worth Googling Beekay), Korda also did a Guide to Rigs, and Gardner do a small guide Also chapters in Tim Paisleys Big Carp, To Catch a Carp, and Hutchy The Carp Strikes Back amongst others. You also have some of the free DVD's from Nash, Korda and the like, which probably have a bit in them, just remember that they are an advert as well. However in most cases, keep it simple, a standard Knotless knotted rig will work although occasionally a Line aligner may make for better hooking and possibly anti ejection. The most important thing is putting the rig in the right place and getting the feeding situation right You also have: https://forum.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=22185 Quote

ando Posted May 15, 2011 Report Posted May 15, 2011 try the Korda website, they have a section on rigs and rig tying. Quote
rhodarrichy Posted May 31, 2011 Report Posted May 31, 2011 I thought this one was good The power of carp2 (Renyards Rigs) from ultima Quote
cobleyn Posted May 31, 2011 Report Posted May 31, 2011 Nash have done one recently that's quite good. Quote
mattgroves Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Nash have done one recently that's quite good. Rig Evolution? Yeah, it's well worth a watch, not only covers several modern rigs but also includes lots of commentary on how they were invented and the evolution of our thinking/knowledge (hence the title!). Another gem available in tackle shops at my favorite price Also, IMO Rig Evolution is not as sales/marketing lead as the Korda ones, but I did end up getting a couple of the diffusion leaders after seeing them in the DVD!!

enormadon Posted August 28, 2011 Report Posted August 28, 2011 the best one for showing you how to tie rigs is power of carp 2 it is a dvd for rigs Quote
