Can this rig be used with a pop up

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

@@masonrees1903 yes it can, you will probably need a larger piece of putty or a split shot to counter balance the pop-up but otherwise the set-up is the same.

Thanks John, your rig videos are some of the best and easiest to follow. As a new angler I've learned a lot from them. Keep 'em coming. Might be too simple for the main audience, but I'd love an overview video for different bait types, base mixes etc. I've found it a bit overwhelming to know which to try and why.

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Awesome, thank you! Yep we can do that!

Perfekt rig.

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

[@antoniosgwozdz2945]

Really nice rig!! imho you can go further : I would recommend very similar multi rig: looking and working almost indentical but you can change hook in a second. Instead of tying knotless knot just make loop using 8loop knot, pull loop throught hook eye, attach microring swivel and over hook, rest same ( kicker, putty, antitangle slevee).

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Yep the Multi Rig is another good presentation!

[@antoniosgwozdz2945]

Oh you responded! to be precise i would name rig I described: slip-D multi. Question: I can tie 2 versions of it: with „D” section with coat or without coat (Like in your Video). What would be the difference if any?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

@@antoniosgwozdz2945 Its a lot about personal preference really - so for a pop-up I'd prefer the coating on to create more of a D rig, but with a Wafter I'd take the coating away for a softer presentation of the hookbait so it can easily be taken when the hook is laying flat and so the hookbait can slid.

[@antoniosgwozdz2945]

Mainline Baits Carp Fishing TV THANK YOU ! ;)

[@markmason13]

Thats the way I tie it mate.

[@garystone6583]

Blimey, nice video and its funny to think i was using that same hook link 30 odd years ago, odviously different coated braid but it was the same rig none the less. 👍

[@brockfordjunktion]

It's a great rig, it's my go to rig these days.

[@stephenport4768]

Good rig caught a few on it the only thing I don't do is put a shrink tube or kicker over the eye of the hook

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Good to hear Stephen!

[@lancestar403]

Hi john great vid but can you use it without the kicker

[@dannyboii4351]

Another rig to add to armoury, good vid dude as always, when is the subscriber guest fishing trips coming lol would sure be a dream for average Joe to join you guys on a trip, although would take some planning, much love keep up good content.

Thanks Danny - glad you found this helpful! A Subscriber guest session trip is something we'd like to do at some point for sure!

[@liontibbs5441]

Quality

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Thanks!

[@Dr4g0nW00d]

You also can use some fluorocarbon to attach a wafter mostly I make 5 same rigs with a wafter already on switching is easy and quick and you can attach a new wafter when you wait for a fish

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Yep, always good to have a few rigs tied and ready!

[@andrewtate8303]

Seen many demos how to tie slip D,s most use kurc shank,s of some sort without anything behind the hook ie no kicker so is it nessacarry ?

[@andrewtate8303]

Do tangles happen regular when casto out just like this?🤔

[@anthonyrushton3495]

Great video as always how much of the stripped off material off the eye of the hook or is it all coated thank you

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Thanks Anthony - the D is uncoated and about an inch from the hook eye.

[@anthonyrushton3495]

Thank you for the reply

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

@@anthonyrushton3495 No worries!

[@ionutsaratanu2010]

Great! When we see some carps?

Soon!

[@gregwebster1599]

Great film thanks! Just to be clear, is the coating removed up as far as the putty?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

There is around an inch removed from the hook and then the putty is around another inch further back. Glad you enjoyed this!

[@gregwebster1599]

👍

[@paulwright3372]

Can you use kickers instead of shrink tube thanks

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Yes you could.

[@RADDY1993]

Can I use normal boiliees with this as bottom bait.

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Yes you could.

[@darrenclarke553]

Is this just as effective with a bottom bait ?

[@deanbartram1297]

Hi guys, am I OK to hook on a small pva mesh bag when using this rig? Without it effecting the rig effectiveness. Thank you.

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Hi Dean, yes you can.

[@markneedham2287]

Could this be adapted to a non coated hooklink and fished liked a cocked Ronnie rig from a solid pva bag ?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Yes, but I'd probably only use it in a solid bag where there's no risk of tangles.

[@markneedham2287]

@@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV Thankyou

[@MrPureBeasts]

I was wondering where my black clipper when you stole it 😰🤣 perfect rig tho

[@Matt-ft2fc]

Would a wide gape hook work here or is curved hook better ?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

You could use a wide gape.

[@gozney1987]

Do you always use barbless hooks?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Nearly always use a micro barb hook Chris.

[@coreydalton-thorp1656]

Is this good for pva bags

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Inside solid PVA bags it can be yes.

[@nicerod423]

I like the idea of the slip d but Iv never had real confidence on the presentation

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Confidence is everything and if that lies with a different rig I'd keep to that. Perhaps then tie a couple of these and test on a 'easy' water to gain some confidence and have another presentation in the locker for when you may need it.

[@alex-te6zm]

I can make this rog with florocarbon?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Hi Alex, its really best with a coated braid - although you could tie the hook/slip D section with a soft braid and then tie to fluorocarbon using an Albright Knot. So a slip D combi rig.

[@alex-te6zm]

@@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV thx

😂😂. Of course! Thanks for the reply, I couldn’t resist.

[@singerpour6946]

Really struggled with getting the line through the eye three times

[@SPS_survivor]

What are you using to construct the rig? A braided hook link is what’s needed with the coating stripped back making the material very thin but still super strong … 👍🏼

[@liamcain7844]

Can you just use a simple hair rig with this Wafter or isn’t it effective

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Yes you can, just check the balance of the rig in the edge before casting out, just to make sure your hook has enough weight.

[@CarpyJaxx]

Can this rig be used with a bottom bait?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Yes it can.

[@CarpyJaxx]

@@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV thank you so much for the response guys!

[@hackstii6175]

What is the purpose of the putty ?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

It helps the hook turn when picked up by the fish.

[@hackstii6175]

@@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV ah I see, got my first big carp day tomorrow! Very excited. Thanks for the reply.

[@jordanlayfield8975]

What size hook is this?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Hi Jordan, the hook is a size 6.

[@jordanlayfield8975]

Could a size 4 be used for this?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

@@jordanlayfield8975 Yes, although it will sink a little quicker - if you wanted more buoyancy you could add a Topper as seen in the video or use a 18mm Balanced Wafter and trim it slightly so the rig sinks nice and slow and only just balances on the lakebed.

[@jordanlayfield8975]

Thank you 👍🏽

[@michaladamski6039]

What is you favourite presentation from that two in video. Did you notice any difference in numbers of takes ? Regards

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

It would be the first with the hook laying flat on the lakebed, although there are times when you can want that bit more bouyancy and the hook up on the point, like if fish are not mouthing the hookbait and feed aggressively or if lakebed debris is a concern.

[@EricPollarrd]

What I don’t agree with the wafters is the hook size they’re set up to balance with. 12mm= size 8, 15mm=size 6, 18mm= size 4. Should be 10, 8, 6 imo. Don’t need massive hooks

[@markmusica7554]

😄

[@lordamercy5609]

its not actually a slip D is it if the D is fixed with a knot.

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Hi, yes as the D can slip down the hook unlike a fixed mono type D arrangement. Without the knot you have the Multi-Rig. Hope that helps fella!

Just add a micro shot? Putty and all that over fuss, I think carp anglers are using this stuff and forgetting the basics, if you wana get over the top then just learn to make a fishing fly..... 😂

[@activeviii]

Slip D? It's in the name, sport to pick holes but this is a D rig. Where is the slip? You whipped the wrong end to the hook. You whip the tag end, the shrink tube will hold everything in place so it does not in ravel, you can then adjust the loop size to as you need, plus when hooking a fish the knot slips. It's no the name. LMAO.

[@chrisbelcher2561]

Agree - this is not my understanding of a slip D as its fixed with a knotless knot . . .a slip D is as per Mark Bryants Ultimate Rig
