stoogi Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 with a little pva tape to hold the 2 together during the cast, i think that rig could work very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceelyr Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 I like the fact that its the hook that moves back into the mouth and not the boilie...i can see that working well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevor1 Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Has anybody tried this rig,if so what was the outcome? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slinger Posted April 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Yes. The inventor of the rig was catching 40lb'ers and big lumps on the rig. As stoogi has said...... you could try using a length of pva, or alternatively.... once tied the hooklength, on the boillie line, just a fraction under the level of the eye of the hook, tie in a loop, and thread the hook length through so as the 2 lines stay together. as so......... UNTRIED, but I can't see any reason why this would take anything away from the structure of the rig. (I would also offer the alternative of using a rig ring as opposed to tying a loop, but that may mean balancing the boillie with cork) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salokcinnodrog Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 Thinking about the Description of the Doghouse the Baits were lowered into the Margins rather than cast out in most cases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigernuttom Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 i saw that rig on here on tuesday, tied one up as i was a bit bored, thought what the heck, so i dropped it in the margins with a fake tiger hookbait and an hour later had a 28 off it, and the biggest fish to come out of there for a while. well chuffed!!!

slinger Posted April 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Spot on advice stoogi. I used the rig last weekend, and used the pva string tied tight around. Result. Twice.

slinger Posted April 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 Whether he has changed his views is irrelevant. The rig is what is in debate, and it works just as well now as it did when Martin Clarke designed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that he seems to be doing the same as the "Norm" now. Yet the book shows some very good advice that he seems to have come away from?
