D-rigs

[martyn123]

i am trying to use the D-rig and im unsure on how to tie the popup on it there a specila not or nack to it ?

[tonybranno]

What i do is tie some dental floss onto the rig ring with a grinner knot. Put the pop up into the loop of dental floss and pull down tight then cut the excess floss off then blob the knot with a lighter.

 

Easy peasy

[martyn123]

is there any simpler way then that?

i use a slip knot for the pop up and then tie it to the ring with a couple of overhand knots. never had one come off yet(Touch wood)

Its not rocket science mate

Copied from a PM I sent when somebody asked the same question

No problem happy to help.

 

I tie a Uni knot in the end of the line to create the loop, this is the braid or mono that I use for the hair to rig ring. Put the bait in loop and then pull it tight so that the bait won't move. I then tie a Blood knot to the rig ring and blob the end with a lighter. May take a little bit of practice as I occasionally do make a boob and blob the line and have the whole lot melt away

 

 

Can be a bit difficult if you need a really short hair, although you can remove the bait to tie it onto the rig ring, although with Mono I have found that I can get a gap of 5mm max with bait attached already, which suits me

 

Hope that helps and explains it ok, if not let me know and I'll see if I can explain it any better.

 

So from Tony's explanation and mine, his is the easiest version.
