THE 'D' RIG - The Carp Fishing Wafter Rig That's Super Simple To Tie! Mainline Baits Carp Fishing TV

THE 'D' RIG - The Carp Fishing Wafter Rig That's Super Simple To Tie! Mainline Baits Carp Fishing TV
In this carp fishing 2020 video, we show you how to tie THE 'D' RIG, a carp rig that is ideally suited to the presentation of wafting hookbaits or balanced baits such as 'snowman' arrangements. This wafter rig positions the hookbait tight to the lakebed, making it less obvious than a pop-up - an advantageous element when carp are perhaps feeding close to a clean area of lakebed and potentially suspicious of baits not sitting in a similar way to the freebies. What's more, this carp rig utilises a fluorocarbon hooklink material, making it practically invisible in water and therefore perfect for clear water conditions, which again is another benefit when fishing for wary carp!

Berkley big game line is tough! I've been using it for over 25 years. This last spool of 15# solar collector green caught the 42# blue cat in the pic.

[@jamesoakley8148]

Heres a tip johnny..when tying the first whipping knot, the tag end that you pull to make the first knot, when you have it in place with the loop put the tag end in the hole in the hook this secures it while tying the knot then pull the tag end out from the hole and pull as you would..

[@fabiom.9175]

You use a anti tangle sleeve. Is a Rubber bead maybe better than an anti tangle sleeve?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

An anti-tangle sleeve works best.

[@abdulmananvlogs9914]

Good 🙂

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Thanks 😄

[@kobsters.7090]

Can anyone tell me if this rig is better suited to a led clip setup or inline lead? Thanks

[@michaelalabaster3212]

HI, I would keep away from in-line leads unless your are fishing in a pva bag, and if you are dont use fluro as its to stiff, braid a better choice.

[@janeconnolly506]

I use this on a running rig setup in all conditions and had good success but have always been told to use a straight eye hook..looking at yours i assume this isnt the case John

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Hi Jane, sounds good - you can use the set-up in a multitude of ways, it just pays to monitor what is or isn't working for you and make adjustments if needed.

[@mogz00002]

Great video. Love watching these. Whats everyone's go to rig of choice for an allrounder

Glad you enjoyed the video Daniel - this rig covers a great many situations: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3vKq5yhfZ2HrtE

[@nse08]

Thank you ! Your voice is really impressive and clear. I wish you will change the color of background (table top) to a plain dark blue color (or similar), so viewer can see more clear on the monofilament and rigs.

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

No problem - we have ordered some new backgrounds, coming soon!

[@carpergolfergaz29]

Great video need a better background colour next time 👍

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Noted!

[@willememmy7414]

Hi John is this always tied with IQ or can there be used other material? Die example mouthtrap or coated hooklink?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

I would stick to a soft fluorocarbon - if you'd prefer to use coated braid then I'd tie up the Slip D Rig: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmSbhIBpjt6AsJI

[@jkfishing1667]

Could you tie an overhand loop knot instead of a figure of 8?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

I do prefer the figure of eight - a stronger knot in my opinion.

[@srbcf]

Are there any advantages of this over the German rig? Both very similar when finished I just hate tying the d rig.

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Only if fluorocarbon is going to make a difference for you in clear water, after that its really just about personal preference.

[@srbcf]

@@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV ok thanks

[@Jessebella1]

Just use mono to add bait, not a ring swivvel. it acts better, is just as easy and can be adapted too. Blob the end to hold bait in place

[@mastodonseven]

Just use mono to make the whole rig (Except the hook) But this video is aimed at the company selling their products not showing people how to make over ten thousand rigs for a tenner excluding the hooks

[@ing_6762]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@karlosigurin9338]

can i make this rig with fox wide gape braked ?

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

You could, but I'd always prefer the Kurv as the hook shank is that little bit longer than the wide gape so gives the D a longer shallower loop.

[@wikusdebruin8358]

Kan you please us a nother colar lin

[@darrylclarkson1799]

Personally don't think it turns aswell with an anti tangle sleeve,tied straight to a swivel the hook drops immediately when the bait is picked up.

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Okay Darryl. I'm just a huge fan of anti tangle sleeves with all my rigs - I once fishing a lake (Stoneacres) where you could inspect your rig after casting with a boat and aqua scope. Without an anti tangle sleeve, so say with a ring swivel attachment the rig would often, well nearly always come to rest laying back on the leader - with an anti tangle sleeve the rig would always be well presented away from the leader and lead, and that influenced me a lot.

[@darrylclarkson1799]

I'm just an average angler but I find if the bait is balanced so it literally just sinks and put 2 pieces of foam on the hook it always lays out straight away from the lead (steamed and straightened)with a flourocarbon hooklink .Glad to see mainlines best presenter is back this week 👍👍

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

@@darrylclarkson1799 Yeah that'll work Darryl - thanks fella!

[@geoffsaunderson5766]

The backgrounds terrible for viewing

[@catboyzee]

Observation: I've seen a YT of videos on the subject, and have come to the conclusion that there is no such thing as a 'simple' and 'easy' D-Rig compared to a basic line, bobber, sinker, and hook rig. Too many tools, parts, and details required to make it work correctly. This is clearly a rig for professional to OCD-minded amateur anglers. Thanks for posting though, very informative if you have the patience to put the rig together. Maybe I'll try it when I get sink of watching those gigantic carp cruising through my present fave fishing hole undisturbed...LMBO!!!

[@2smokepoke]

Richard try it and no longer will you be watching those carp swimming undisturbed in your swim 🤣 you may actually catch one 👍

I'm new to carp fishing can I use coated braid instead and use a kicker instead of shrink tubing many thanks

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

I’ve just got back into angling after I did it as a kid - thanks for the video! Couple of questions: can this rig be used for smaller tackle? What’s the advantage of using tungsten putty vs a swan shot? Thanks!

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

Yes you could scale down this rig a little if needed. The putty is more line friendly and neater really.

[@LordMarps]

Hi Owen, I have never, ever had a problem, so from my experience I'd say no.

[@kilqvc]

Hi Jeff, if it is a bit too fiddly for you, you can skip the whipping knot and secure the rig with some rig rube and one end if the fluorcarbon blobbed of for the same effect without the fuzz!

[@MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV]

You're very welcome!

[@mastodonseven]

All you need to make this is a hook and some mono. Make a hair rig with mono without the loop for the bait. Instead put the "hair end back through the eye of the hook, blob it. There's your D Then use the same mono through the bait to attach the bait. But that wouldn't sell much tackle would it

My favourite bottom bait rig by far. Caught so many fish on it, the way the hook just flips over and catches hold every time and the stiffness of the boom section is so difficult for fish to eject. Great rig, great vid as always, keep em coming!
