Steve reynard came up with this rig 10-15yrs a go now all of a sudden it has done the famous roundabout in the rig world again

[@PBProducts]

Thats correct he certainly did and we thank Steve for his innovative thinking all them years ago , we dont claim to of invented this or revolutionised it in any way , we just like to make the public aware we sell all the components aswell as a pre tied version if anyone wishes to try

[@totalcarpmagazine]

10-15 years ago is a long time, lots of new anglers will never have even seen this rig. Is it something you’ve used before Michael?

@@rob6994you’re more than welcome to. This video is purely to provide information on how to tie this rig

Thank you for the reply, I will definitely check out your other videos 👍

Made me think of Nash Triggalink. Came out donkeys ago... Might get some myself 😊

Yup, ..early 90's I made this rig inspired by an article in a cheaply made small Dutch or Belgian fishing 'magazine' with allways a bleu cover. I believe it was called 't Vissertje (?). The only difference was those guys used it for river/strong current fishing with a seperate elastic bungy cord (course fishing) knotted on the outside of the braid, with the bungy cord straight and the braid kept in a bow. The idea was the fish could allways inhale the bait even when the rig was laying straight down the river current. I simply used Kryston Merlin threaded through silicone tubing with the tubing fixated on the "diamond eye" swivels. It caught me fish and I maybe had a few less tangle - never had much because of feathering the lead down -, but that was it. Years later I read an article of an Englishman claiming the rig. Didn't care👍. Still don't care much about 'special' rigs. I'm more about pre baiting fish and peace of mind on the bank 🤫😉. And as we know that 2nd one is not an easy one for the last 20, 25 years.

I think Ritchie McDonald made the bungee rig famous back in the 80's. Obviously it was tied differently as these products were not around then but the result is the same. I think he was using it as a buffer to enable him to use very fine lines for his carp fishing. I seem to remember 3lb bs being mentioned.

[@honestloz]

Nice to see you're keeping things simple mate!! 😮😮 It looks like an absolute nightmare to me!! I think I will stick to my slip D, blow back, Chod, Ronnie, and a load of other easy to tie rigs that have done me well over the past few years. It always amazes me why people have to complicate things. I would have properly caught a couple of fish by the time you had tied just one of these rigs!! 😅 but thanks for sharing anyway my friend, and good luck 👍 😊

[@totalcarpmagazine]

If you check out the rest of our channel, we do a whole host of different rig videos. Some may be new to anglers, some not and some rigs aren’t for everyone. But, that’s okay. As long as we can provide information that may help anglers out, that’s all the matters 😊

[@JohnWhite-tg9wf]

was using this in the late 80s a cracking rig

[@totalcarpmagazine]

Nice! Did you catch many using it?

[@JohnWhite-tg9wf]

@@totalcarpmagazine hi morning m8 yes caught loads, i used a small peice of lead wire in the end of the tubing it helped in balancing my pop ups and also nailed it to the deck, a small shot on the hair behind pop up finished the job critically balanced and spun the hook, the braid was super silk in 25lb 👍

[@totalcarpmagazine]

Nice! Good angling

[@user-px5dp5dc9u]

Could the bungee tubing be used over supple braid to stop mouth damage when using short hooklinks in solid bags

[@jason88580]

Old but effective, personally i prefer trigger link easy to use and gives you more options yet,omc thought the tragic twig was needed for the same effect

[@duffymtb8829]

Been useing this for years.🤷‍♂️Nash brought this out years ago trigger link 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@totalcarpmagazine]

Nice, have you caught many using it? This is a video to make people aware of the rig as there will be lots of anglers who don’t know about it ☺️

[@duffymtb8829]

Yea it's worked for me but no better than any other rig and yea i suppose a pre tied rig will help some people as thay are a pain to tie

[@Thecraftycarper71]

I think the rig Reynard developed was called “the hermit rig”

[@stevemarshall351]

Can you use a hook swivel instead of the hair

[@billynightmare]

all those one eyed carp about, snap! one eye lol, ancient rig tbh, well apart from all the pole anglers that use rubber ;)

[@totalcarpmagazine]

Have you used the rig before? 😊

[@Hyperraj1]

Thanks mate, will be trying this one. Anyways what top is that your wearing please?

[@totalcarpmagazine]

Let us know how you get on with it 🙌🏻 It’s the Speero Sherpa hoodie

[@TheKreshica95]

Not bad for solid bag method

[@totalcarpmagazine]

If you made the rig short enough for a solid bag it wouldn’t be a bad idea at all!

[@longjohnsilver9192]

This is the most pain in the ass to tie rig I've ever seen

[@totalcarpmagazine]

Definitely not the easiest rig out there to tie, that’s why brands like PB tie ready made ones 😉

[@carlshoesmith9816]

I made that rig 10 years ago mate

We’re not claiming to have invented it. Nice, have you caught many using it? There will be lots of anglers who don’t know about it ☺️

Time is not on our side sooo long to do something so basic half a day to tie a handful of rigs.

[@ragnorremix8426]

Hermit rig way easier to tie, just as effective

[@michaelovery8388]

its old we used this 15 years ago

[@jimbob71]

Used it longer than that we used to use pole elastic

[@jimbob71]

I find it amazing how all these companies or reps know what happens in a carps mouth it does this when they do that its total bs carp do not do you as the korda brigade claim if the hook doesnt prick then its coming back out no matter what material you use ,dont straighten your rig if its straight hows it got movement its like the original hinged stiff the loops gave it vertical movement so it could be sucked in and you really a big lead 4oz at least and a needle point hook to get the best out of these rigs was playing with trigga link 20+ years ago due to a mate being a nash tester .so do tell me how is a hook anti eject what a total load of utter bollocks and learn about twist when you whip a knot like that run your fingers right to the end n take out any twist

[@totalcarpmagazine]

The video is to show how to tie the rig, not how a carp’s mouth works. Also, where you mention anti eject, that’s the name of the hook pattern from PB.

[@jimbob71]

​@@totalcarpmagazinehave you spoke to many carp that have said they have problems with this rig ???

[@jimbob71]

Why do you delete replies ?? ​@@totalcarpmagazine

[@beefsteak8540]

It might look slightly complicated, but i bet you a pound to a penny, 90% of anglers couldn't be bothered to tie something like that, which in turn could be a massive edge. I found carp fishing now day's on certain lakes i fish are getting easier as most anglers fish the same 😂😂

[@totalcarpmagazine]

It’s always worth trying something different if the catch rate slows down. Let us know how you get on if you decide to give the rig a go ☺️
