I allways try & keep things as simple as possible with rigs standard chair rig, but i do concentrate a lot on presentation ie advoiding to much weed pinning line down etc

I try and keep them as simple as possible, I will only change the rig if im getting missed takes or not very good hook holds.

I've never used complicated rigs and don't think I would have caught any more fish if I had of done!

 

I'm sure fish must swim up to most of the so called 'super rigs' take one look at them then swim off laughing:D

 

There just to catch the anglers not the fish, they have to print something in magazines;) :D

yeah i agree the complicated a rig the more that can go wrong with presentation ect

[lexyloo]

simple as poss m8. The more time u spend sorting ur rig out the less time ur rod will be bending with that all time PB:D

Once tried the Withy Pool rig on a popup... had a few runs and all fish were never hooked... now generally stick to simple rigs, line aligners the most complicated I sometimes use is a 360 swivel rig for popups

exactly the same as my fishing there then mate. 360 rig for around 75% of my pop up rigs, standard hair rig for bottom baits

I always use a standard hair rig and little bit of shrink tubing just to help the hook turn and the shot on hook rig for pop-ups but obviously change the hooklength to suit the bottom ive never had to change them rigs been pukka 4 me:D

have to say i have used the withy pool rig for years and i cant remember the last time the carp was not hooked slap bang in the middle of the bottom rig.

mind you a would not class it as a complicated rig , hook and shrink tube very simple.
