You're very helpfull

[@tatchik77]

[@Pwrcritter]

Why is this better than baiting the hook?

[@707SonomaComa]

​​@@Pwrcritter I've asked that question too. Still haven't got an answer.

[@alexandermoev9395]

Dude I spent so long looking through tutorials this is by far the best one.

[@TermlessHGW]

Was about to say the same thing. This video is so nice and clear compared to the rest that I found.

[@idontstunt2613]

Took me 3 weeks to find a this video been looking for a good video for a minute

[@Metal_junk]

Wow, this was the easiest tutorial I’ve seen and all I need to buy is some braided line. I’m definitely gonna catch that fat pond carp now

[@MileytheJeepV2]

Pro tip if you don't have a baiting needle and dont wanna wreck a hook just slide the corn on the hook on the rig, past the barb, and then put the hair rig against the barb and just slide it off the hook

[@FishingExplained]

That's actually quite genius.

[@MileytheJeepV2]

@@FishingExplained figured why not there's a hook already there and it'll do the same thing as a straightened one

[@CorgiTay]

Or use old hooks dummmy

[@Metal_junk]

Or use a toothpick, or poke it with mono line… literally anything lol

[@MileytheJeepV2]

@@Metal_junk well thats just one easy way to do it with something you’ll definitely be carrying if your fishing lol

smaller crochet hooks from the dollar store are great for bait threaders as well

[@abhayrambritch2733]

Quickly question:Do you need to use braid for the hook length or could you just use 10lb mono?

[@kneaech405]

Such a great video, thank you for posting.

[@FishingExplained]

Glad it was helpful!

[@billsimmons9358]

[@nickybeingnicky]

That homemade baiting needle is useful for putting line back through catfish worms too.

[@securityofficer9483]

GREAT VIDEO! THANKS FOR THE HELP!

[@Alonzo5821]

Damb you made it look simple. Thank you

[@proxonez2574]

Would we pull the swivel into the inline lead?

[@FishingExplained]

Yes, but some people do like running rigs where the weight is free.

[@allenkeough2629]

do you put pack bait around your Sinker or is the pink corn the only bait you use

[@michaeltkach8216]

Awesome I want to start fishing for carp! Sorry if this is common knowledge but should my leader line be weaker than my mainline so I dont lose my whole rig? I am going to start using method feeders but I dont want to lose them

[@FishingExplained]

Normally the mainline is monofilament or fluorocarbon in 12-30lb test while the leader is typically 15-50lb braid or hooklink. I think your best bet is to find a cheap source for method feeders since if you go any lighter with the line you risk losing a carp of a lifetime.

[@michaeltkach8216]

@@FishingExplained thank you very much!

[@jf8468]

Very informative this gives me a fantastic idea

[@basicweeb4272]

if you don't wanna mangle a hook or you don't have soft enough hooks to bend you can make a baiting needle out of a toothpick really easy and you can even use the same toothpick as ur baitstop if you really want to

[@JaredBillette]

I have a complete beginner question. Can I put corn or boilies directly on the hook for carp or must I do one of these rigs? Thanks.

[@ethanmann5231]

You can do that however hair rigs have many advantages. Better hook up rate, better hook placement and less likely to get stolen by bluegill.

[@bidenadministrationischina5091]

While watching this I realized I already knew this like a decade ago and I’m now done relearning the exact same process

[@prymb1299]

Thank you so much Broda 🙌 ......

[@muhamadq1744]

Can i use a braid to braid set up or must it be mono or flouro to braid?

[@michaelmannucci8585]

Why do you use what looks like braid as the leader? Couldn't you use fluorocarbon, in which case it would be less visible?

[@0100000101001100]

Carp have very sensitive mouths. They go by what they feel. That's why the hair rig is used. They feel only the bait, then swallow the bait and the hook then follows and hooks em. If you put bait on the hook a lot of times they sense it and spit it out. Lots of vids on here that show it.

[@RondoOfChaos]

what do you recommend for main line weight? does it matter if it's high vis or not?

[@Just4FunFishing]

Thank you so much for this tutorial I finally learned how to tie a hair rig simple straight to the point 🫡

[@luisnava3239]

This may be a dumb question but do you put bait on the hook at all? lol

[@alexleonard2811]

Please tell me the number of the Fox hook...Number 2 seems smaller than the number 2 of other hooks. That's how it is?

[@nav7icula]

Very good and well explained. A++++++

[@TheShotokan6]

So the weight is only there to help cast? I thought it was supposed to help set the hook?

[@Vermonstered]

This is basically a specialized Carolina rig. The line passes through the weight without taking the weight. The weight is there for keeping the rig still on the bottom of the river/creek and acting as a stop for the leader portion to rest against. Setting the hook is done by rod action and the weight will help set the hook when it's picked up when the slack is taken out of the line.

[@rage-_-gamercantfazeme1389]

That just to help u throw and keep ur rig in the ground so it wont move around

[@maddawgzzzz]

I legit just put corn on the hook... works everytime lol. use a catfishrod with a heavty baitcaster, never lost a fish. I use 60-100lb rates swivles aswell. My weight goes on right after the swivel, its simply fixed, and if you snag you can break off at the swivel with your 20lb fluro leader.

[@RoryLynott]

Carp Rock!!!

[@707SonomaComa]

This is a great video for beginners. But why not put the bait directly on the hook insead of having it next to the hook?

[@FishingExplained]

Way better hook rate with a hair rig. The mechanics of the rig make the hook point drop down and catch a carp's mouth. You hook a carp when they attempt to eject the bait. Having a fully exposed hook point and bend is critical.

[@707SonomaComa]

@@FishingExplained there's a lot to learn with carp fishing.

[@FishingExplained]

Yup, but it's alot of fun

[@EasyModeFishing]

Is this the rig where they hook themselves??

[@FishingExplained]

Yes.

[@cr44dy]

Is it possible or worth trying to tie the rig with fluorocarbon and using braid as the main line?

[@rage-_-gamercantfazeme1389]

Mainly people us braid as there rig cause its stronger than normal line

[@rage-_-gamercantfazeme1389]

But would suggest using braid as ur rig and fluorocarbon as main

[@gazwoods7026]

I'd advise you to use components that are camouflaged, it will land you more carp, light green,dark green, black and lighter shaded blacks, and browns would help you land more fish and I'd use fluorocarbon or camouflage monofilament as your mainline, good luck guys 🇬🇧 ✊🏼

[@smartin5714]

Thanks for the video help out a lot 👍

[@FishingExplained]

Glad it helped

[@alexmack416]

why is this rig specific to carp? will it catch any other fish?

[@FishingwithPreston-ci7kz]

Because it’s a hair rag meant to catch cop and you put boilers on the hair rig

[@Sweetcnj01829]

Thank you!

[@abdulrahmanelshafey4159]

*I bought these and used them at the river where I get snags often they have done a **enjoyable.fishing** recommend great job of not breaking along with some strong line I purchased as well. They are super durable and easy to use.*

[@Carpdreaming]

Can I do this with mono?

[@That_Guyfrfr]

Yes

[@That_Guyfrfr]

Works for me at least

[@tclift1670]

You said size 2-6 but the package said 5/0, did you mean 2/0-6/0?

[@antonio_o2395]

Does the leader have to be 50lb ?

[@FishingExplained]

16-50lb braid is common for the hook link.
