  • This rig gives you a guaranteed presentation and keeps you fishing in all conditions.
    The rig is a variation on the mono D with a blowback tube to create a long D. This makes the bottom bait sit lower down, near the bend of the hook and helps the rig to flip and turn faster and give great hook holds.
    This rig is impossible to tangle and will keep you fishing in all sorts of conditions.
    And if I had to choose one rig to fish with for the rest of my life, no matter what type of venue, lake, river, weed, silt, this is the one.
    Many anglers are obsessed with combi rigs, spinner rigs, and rigs that have extra flexibility and movement near the hook. But if a rig can easily spin in, it can spin out just as quickly. And whenever you introduce a swivel or a supple section into a rig, there’s a chance that it will tangle - either in flight or while it’s fishing. You don’t need to add movement near the hook to catch more carp. You don’t need a thinner material near the hook to catch more carp.

    What I’ve proved with this rig over the past 2 years, in my own fishing and with anglers at my lake, is that a simple rig made with thick mono catches carp of any size and from any water. Big lakes, small ponds, flowing water, still water, it doesn't matter. This rig can do it all. You’ll be able to present a rig tangle free, cast after cast, with absolute confidence that it’s fishing for you.

    Hi Matthew
    Still amazing content and incredible quality video !
    Every time I watch your channel, I have more and more questions and more and more tips to increase the way I can catch more carp. I'm still a beginner on carp fishing (4 years of experience) but still learning from your great videos.
    This year, I'm fully trying the running rig that you talked about in previous video, I'm 100% confident on it, get few carps on a small pond next to my location.
    Your new video raise few questions :
    -you already said that coated braid could lay bad on the lake bed, but could it be the same with 0.50 mono then ?
    -every time a new rig is described on a article, the common advantage of this is rig is, most of the time, a D on the hook (like D rig, your extended D rig with blowback tube). That's why I'm always using Slip D Rig, which seems to me the most versatile rig (bottom bait, snowman, pop-up etc), very robust, but you never mentioned this rig in particular. It seems that combine extended D with low balance next to the curve of the hook (like you said around 17.30) Do you think it worth it ?
    Best,
    Joseph

    • @matthewcollinsangler
      @matthewcollinsangler  Před 8 dny

      Hi Joseph,
      Coated braid only sits badly on the bottom if you strip some of the coating off. If you leave the coating in place it behaves the same as the mono but costs £££’s for no additional benefit.
      The slip D is a nice rig and I use it sometimes. We used it in this video: czcams.com/video/TPCvErlGGZ0/video.html
      The slip D is tied with a supple braid. I use 25lbs Armourlink. It’s good for a bait boat, row boat or solid PVA bag or for casting short range with a PVA mesh bag but I wouldn’t try to cast it a long way (tangle risk). The problem with the Slip D is that you can’t change the hook quickly and the material is expensive. Unless you are a hook sharpening pro then you should be changing your hooks very frequently. Every cast at my lake! This becomes very expensive in hooklink and hooks (one rig per cast!).
      I recommend the bombproof mono D rig because it’s quick and easy to tie and mono is very cheap. I recommend the blowback multi rig because you only have to change the hook.

  • @fabiocarp78

    Absolutely great work as always. I have a question about looping: wouldnt be bettere to use a ring swivel to allow the loop dropping better?

    • @matthewcollinsangler
      @matthewcollinsangler  Před 14 dny

      Hi mate, yes you can use a ring swivel at the hooklink end to create a pivot point but wherever you have a pivot, there’s an increased chance of tangling. I demonstrated the rig with a stiff connection because that’s the most robust (anti-tangle) solution and that was the point of the whole video. We didn't feature the lead system in this video, that video is coming out later this year. The lead system I use allows the rig to rotate and pivot when it’s fishing but in flight, everything is locked solid to reduce tangles. Here’s a quick overview of it I put on Instagram: instagram.com/p/CsoJFuBMfH7/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

    Hi Matt. Great video as always. One question; what are your thoughts on the mechanics of this rig being a very stiff rig when approached by the fish from different directions? I like a 360 rig like the Ronnie because of the ability to turn when approached by the carp from any direction. Cheers 🙂👍

    • @matthewcollinsangler
      @matthewcollinsangler  Před 14 dny +1

      Hi mate, I know that carp anglers across the land are obsessed with the Ronnie/Spinner rig but you just don’t need them IMO. Any rig that can easily spin in and easily spin out. Spinner rigs are known for random/poor quality hook holds and I for one would never use one. One of the reasons why I use 0.50 mono and not fluoro for this rig is that it’s semi stiff. Not very stiff. Stiff enough to make it tangle proof but supple enough to react naturally when it’s sucked in. When they try to blow it out, the semi stiff material means it’s less likely to exit straight which is what leads to hookups. I’ve been using this rig myself for two years and sharing it with tuition anglers at my lake and it’s been very successful wherever it’s used. If your hook is sharp, this rig works 💯 👍

  • @crazycarpguy1074
    @crazycarpguy1074 Před 14 dny

    Great video Matt, but I am curious. I have always been shy of using thick hook links because of the idea you'll get fewer bites than a thin, supple braid if the carp feel it and eject it sooner. Match fishermen know this and will downsize their line and hooks to get more bites. I do understand the anti-tangle benefits, but in your opinion if these weren't an issue, would a thin supple line convert more bites into fish on the bank because they're less likely to eject it early?

    • @matthewcollinsangler
      @matthewcollinsangler  Před 14 dny +1

      Hi mate, the idea that thin lines get you more bites comes from coarse fishing and match angling. Specimen carp fishing is completely different. The fish are much larger and feed in a completely different manner so what works in coarse fishing has no relation to what works in carp fishing. It’s an absolute myth that carp feel the hooklink on their lips. If this was the case we’d never catch them. I’m a big fan of strong supple materials such as 25lbs Armourlink and I’ve caught loads of carp using it but you need to use it in the right situation. I’ve tried using supple rigs on large lakes and reservoirs but it’s a disaster. They tangle in flight and then get tangled by nuisance species. Totally inappropriate. This rig works because it stays tangle free and the carp find it difficult to eject (especially when you use a free running ledger). If your hook is sharp, this rig works 💯 👍

    Hi Matt, just wondering if you fish slack lines with your running rigs? As I understand you rely on the clutch to apply the hooking force, but is there anything to initially drive the hook in when the rig tightens if you don’t use a bowstring tight line?
    I’ve been using running rigs in solid bags over the winter months and have had some good fish, but I’ve been using a mega tight line down to 3oz leads. Mainly due to fish noticing the line and potentially spooking them, I would like to give slack/er lines a go, but I just don’t have the confidence.
    Hoping you can shed some light for me, thanks very much.

    • @matthewcollinsangler
      @matthewcollinsangler  Před 15 dny +2

      Hi Jake, 99% of my fishing over the last 15 years has been with running rigs. When I first started using them I fished them very slack (lines hanging limp from the tip slack!) Leads were 3.5oz inline set to give a tiny bump effect on the take and then convert into a running lead setup. This setup out-fished everything I knew up until that point and I never looked back. Nowadays I tend to fish tight or with a 15g backlead. I still slack-line at close quarters though. A free running ledger works because the carp doesn't realise anything’s wrong until it’s too late for them to do something about it. Even when they swim back towards me and there is no clutch effect, the weight of the line and a free running ledger is all you need to hold that hook in place. I know it’s a huge leap of faith (it was for me!) but you’ll get the same from anyone that fishes this way. I get plenty of messages about how well this works, sometimes it feels like cheating! Enjoy, Matt.

    Hi Matt. Going a bit off topic here but you said you could use any mainline you like 12lb/15lb. If using a much stronger hooklength than mainline could you not snap off much further up the line leaving the carp trailing long lengths of line? I know its common in carp fishing to have stronger hooklengths. Match fishing the other way round.

    • @matthewcollinsangler
      @matthewcollinsangler  Před 13 dny

      Hi mate, I understand that if you are used to coarse fishing this may seem completely backwards. In specimen carp fishing, it has to be this way around or we’d never be able to catch what we catch using regular gear. Imagine trying to cast 30lbs (0.50) monofilament mainline off massive reels to safely land carp because you need 25lb hooklink due to some rocks or mussels. Modern carp fishing wouldn't exist if this was the case.
      Your point is totally valid though and our job is to make sure that the carp are safe if something bad does happen. There are 2 things I do to achieve that:
      One, I only fish running rigs because they are the most effective and safest, and my running lead has a large plastic run ring that is designed to break if the lead gets trapped.
      Two, I only use barbless hooks as these are the safest way of carp fishing IMO as the carp can easily get rid of the hook if it’s trailing a rig.
      We’ve been using inline running rigs here at Beausoleil for years. We drain down every two years and the only time we see lead still on the line is when someone has used a semi fixed rig.

    • @matthewcollinsangler

      Hi mate, different hooks have different sized eyes. I like the Nash chod Twisters because the eye size is fairly generous. 0.56 is quite thick. You could try cutting the tag end of the mono at 45 degrees. That will help. If you aren't trying to cast to the moon then most anglers should be able to get away with 0.45 mono so that’s another option for the hook you have.

    • @matthewcollinsangler
      @matthewcollinsangler  Před 12 dny

      @@ChristianD1992 Hi Christian, the secret to casting running rigs is to get the balance right between lead size and bait size. My go-to option is a 3 - 3.5oz lead with a 20 - 24mm bait and a narrow PVA stick (highly compressed, 3cm long). If the lead is too light, relative to the size of the bait/PVA stick, then the lead and the bait will tend to separate in the air. Once you’ve got the balance of the rig right, feathering the lead towards the end of the cast helps limit the separation, as will trapping the lead before it enters the water (always feel the lead down on a tight line). It also helps if the sleeve you use has a rigid stem to it as this will help to hold the lead by the swivel in flight. There is a trick I use to temporarily hold the lead next to the swivel but it’s not easy to explain in words. We will be releasing a full video on this at some point but I hope, for the time being, that gives you some insights into how to cast a running rig.

    • @matthewcollinsangler
      @matthewcollinsangler  Před 12 dny

      @@ChristianD1992 In terms of feeling the lead down with a running rig, there should be absolutely no difference to how you do this compared to a semi fixed rig. Make the cast (overcast rather than under), feather the lead to control the distance, trap the lead before it hits the water, raise the rod and feel the lead down on a tight line. If you struggle at first you can always cheat a bit and use some PVA tape to hold the lead by the swivel while you work on your technique. Best of luck, Matt.

    Interesting that you catch carp of all sizes with the 0.50mm line. We've been brought up to think finer lines for better presentation to fool wary fish. Maybe this comes from general pleasure fishing where we all started off.

    Hi @matthewcollins surely we want our boilies to break down and after 24 hours should be a lot softer so they leak out the attraction? I've always thought cheap bait doesn't break down. I'm guessing the glug put a skin on it so if this is the case why do we glug them before throwing out the freebies. I know because videos tell us to. I'm now in two minds on what to do. Decisions, decisions 😂😂😂

    • @matthewcollinsangler
      @matthewcollinsangler  Před 15 dny

      Hmm, it’s not something I worry about TBH. Boilies don’t have to break down to be attractive. They leak attraction all the time. That’s why we use them. I want them to stay whole long enough for the carp to find them. I just use Scopex Squid straight out of the bag most of the time. If I need them to be harder because of the crayfish, then I salt cure them. If I need them to be more attractive because I’m fishing singles at a range I can’t bait up at, I glug them.

    Hi Matt. I struggle to pass a 0.4 line twice back through the eye so how do you do it 3 times with a 0.5 ?
    I'm guessing it's the hook but I use the claw in a 4 and just about get it through twice

    • @matthewcollinsangler
      @matthewcollinsangler  Před 15 dny +1

      Ah I just use sharp scissors to make a nice clean cut. If your scissors are blunt, this might be the trouble. The Nash claw comes in two eye styles, standard (in-turned eye) and chod style (out-turned eye). The chod style has a much larger eye so maybe you are trying to use an in-turned eye hook (which is why you are struggling). I can make this rig with a size 6 Nash chod Claw and 0.60 no trouble at all. Hope that helps!

    I love this rig, but can never push myself to try it. The lack of flex at hook end bothers me. Despite knowing it’s very effective by all accounts. I think if the fish approaches somewhere toward the front it’s arguably one of the most efficient rigs. My concern is if a fish approach’s from the rear so hook eye side it maybe is easier to get done. No evidence whatsoever on this from me, just how it seems

    • @matthewcollinsangler

      One of the reasons why I use 0.50 mono is that it’s semi stiff. Not very stiff. Stiff enough to make it tangle proof but supple enough to react naturally when it’s sucked in. When they try to blow it out the semi stiff material means it’s less likely to exit straight which leads to more hookups.

    • @matthewcollinsangler
      @matthewcollinsangler  Před 10 dny

      You’ll find the eye of a size 6 Nash chod Twister is a bit tight for 0.60 mono, that's why I choose 0.50 for a size 6. If you want to use 0.60 then you’ll have to step up to a size 4 chod Twister. The other option would be to use a size 6 Nash chod claw. Although they are still categorised as a size 6, these have a larger eye, a thicker wire gauge and a wider gape. They also have a shorter shank so you lose the gap that I have between the top of the blowout tube and the 4 wraps of the 4 turn knotless knot. Without this gap you’ll lose the bite indication (telling you if the carp are getting away with it). It’s not the end of the world but it's a useful feature of the rig as originally designed. Cheers, Matt.

    Will the nash chod claw hooks be ok?

    • @matthewcollinsangler
      @matthewcollinsangler  Před 15 dny +1

      Hi mate, if you prefer a beaked point then sure you can use the Nash claws but I’d use the chod claw version. Size 6 is all you need as these hooks are very strong and quite large. All my test fishing on this rig has been with the chod Twister because the shank is longer and if I tie a 4 turn knotless knot, it leaves a gap of a few mm between the top of the blowout tube and the knot. This acts as an indicator if I get done. If you use the claw, the shank is very short and you’ll lose this gap but it’s totally an option.

      @@redvalley9 Not tested it. 0.45mm might be a bit too thin but that very much depends on the size of the eye of the hooks you want to use. It might partner well with a size 8. It’s not going to be as stiff as the 0.50. It might be perfectly suitable for the type of angling you are doing but you are going to have to explore that one on your own. All I can tell you is that the the rig as shown in the video has been tested over two years and it works great 👍
