Carp Rigs

rgfixit:
For bait fishing the "Hair Rig" is my favorite. Always hooks them in the lips...never swallowed. I use a barrel swivel up line and a small slip sinker  above...leader length usually about 2'.

Tie the hook in line as shown leaving a loop about 3" past the hook

Thread the bait or boilie on the "Hair" using  a bait needle. slip a pine needle through the loop and push the bait down to the end.

RG,
    Is there any special knot to tie onto the hook with. I've seen this rig many times, but never tried to duplicate it.

rgfixit:
I simply snell a # 8 short shank wide gap hook on the line and use the tag end  for the "hair".

The Europeans will use braided nylon for the "Hair". I like the stiff cocoa colored Maxima fly leader materials for these rigs.

I also add a small piece of foam to float the bait just off the bottom.

wny angler:
i wonder if that will work for those new species of asian carp invading the great lakes--100lb+  8' high leaping-boat smashing asian carp

rgfixit:
I haven't bumped into any yet but I've seen some amazing videos. Don't know what they feed on...time for some research.
