How to tie : D-rig

 


The D-rig is my favourite rig and my go to rig on all my sessions. Perfect with bottom baits or wafters, also great with different coloured kickers as it gives your bait that extra visual attraction. It is a simple rig to make once you get the hang of it, don't get discourage on your first try, it took me a few minutes to make my first D-rig after lots of attempts. 

To make this awesome rig you'll need a few items;
Once you have your items cut 10 inches of the stiff link chod and boom filament, after that create a small loop at one end of the filament then place the loop on the shank of the hook with the small tag
end facing the eye of the hook.
With the loop trap the small tag end along the shank of the hook by wrapping it, do this 4-6 times. Next pull both ends tight, cut the tag end off, if there's still a tag use the lighter to melt it down to the knot and blob it to make it secure.

Next you can thread on your micro bait after that you can thread the filament through the eye of the hook and create your D to way you would like it. Once your satisfied do a knotless knot by wrapping the filament along the shank 6 times then thread it back through the eye of the hook, now you can add your kicker if you wish to add one but that's down to you,. Once you've done that you can do a figure of eight knot and your D-rig is ready to go and bag you carps.


If your wondering where to get the items to create this cracking rig head over to Rigworx, top quality tackle that I trust and have confidence in.

  With fishing there are a few things you need or want to buy, rods, reel, line, end tackle, bait, bivvy, bedchair the list goes on and on. But there's one thing that every angler must have and that's comfortable, warm clothing. Clothing in fishing is a big market with all the big brands like Korda, Fox, trakker all have there own clothing brand along with all there equipment, but yet there are clothing brand that only sells clothing. Which for me is perfect because they are anglers themselves they know what every angler wants or needs in clothing. Luckily I'm part of a great team at Quarry Clothing Co. Jason and Craig are brothers who started Quarry Clothing Co together and I asked them a few questions Jason happily answered for this blog. I first asked ''What made you start Quarry Clothing Co?'' Jason replied with '' Me and Craig started QC through a love of carp fishing and design and this came together in a range of clothing. We knew we had some ...
