As Carp anglers ourselves we've been tying carp rigs for over 10 years and decided to utilise that experience by creating Ready Tied Carp Rigs for other anglers on a Full Time basis.
Using only the best components available to us, all of our rigs are created to the highest possible standards and to ensure the best quality we check every single rig for defects or imperfections prior to packaging/despatch. We do not sell any rigs that we wouldn't be willing to use ourselves.
With the customer service we provide, the attention to detail we give and the quality of our products, we're confident that once you've used our rigs you will become a permanent customer.

The Withy Pool Rig is a simple yet totally effective Popup, Wafter and Bottom Bait rig. 

The extended shrink tubing (around 1 inch) will extend the curve of the hook and enables the hook to flip and turn very quickly.  Very similar to a noodle rigs mechanics. The tubing will be available in a few colours that will assist with your fishing style (Silt, Weed, Sweetcorn plus others are available)

The Withy Pool Rig can be used as either a Popup or Bottom bait rig with lethal effect. Use as a single hookbait rig in the winter or over a bed of maggots , particle or boilies at other times.

This is perfect for fishing over choddy bottoms as well as harder lakebeds and once a carp picks this up it will find it extremely difficulty to eject and land you more fish. You will see the hook firmly in the bottom lip every time. If you want to add a wafter hookbait, it will waft around above the hook whilst also masking the hook that will be laying flat to the lakebed.

If the hookbait is picked up and ejected the rig will reset itself too which is a massive confidence booster as you will know that the rig will always be fishing as effectively as possible. You can use this with pretty much any hookbait out there and adjust to your own requirements when on the bank.

A perfect rig to keep in your rigsafe along with the similar Korda N Trap Noodle Rig or Blowback Rig.

I would personally use CCmoore Live System wafter or popup hookbaits with this rig and have complete confidence in them but any popup, wafter or boilie will be more than sufficient.

As above and as far as hookbaits go, you can use pretty much anything out there, from fake baits such as dumbells, corn, maize, tigernuts, maggots etc or maybe a wafter or popup straight out of the tub.  If you want to go even further you can drill out boilies, tigernuts etc and insert some cork to create your own unique hookbaits.

This particular rig and style has been used to great effect by many anglers for the last few years and will catch you plenty of carp on your chosen venue.

To get the best performance from the Withy Pool Rig, attach a pva mesh bag along with your chosen popup, wafter or boilie and your rig will be primed to nail a greedy carp.

The rig is tied off with a loop to allow you to either loop to loop onto your swivel or attach normally onto a quick change swivel etc.


Rig breakdown:

This particular rig comes with either a Curved or Wide Gape Hook pattern:-

Curve Shank - The curve of the shank leaves the hook sitting at an aggressive hooking angle and a longer shank for the hookbait to move up and down if using a bait screw for example.  This makes it very difficult for the carp to blow the hookbait out.
Wide Gape - A wider gape gives a great hooking potential and aggressive hooking angle which will flip quickly when sucked in by a carp.

Both hook patterns are Teflon coated and anti glare. Available in sizes 4,6,8 in either Micro Barb or Barbless (we do not crush barbs or modify in any way)

The hooklink is made with a Coated braid that ensures that it is out of the way and unlikely to spook the carp when feeding by your hookbait. The rig mechanics allow the hook to flip and take hold very quickly once tightened to the lead.
We have a few different coated braid colours available for this rig from weed to silt. There are also different lengths of the hooklink available.

For attaching your hookbait please select your chosen preference.

There are various shrink tubing kicker colours available on request. The kicker colour can either be chosen to blend in with the lakebed substrate or to stand out and entice quicker bites as proven on the Korda Underwater series. The kicker also enables the hook to flip even quicker but by no means is it really necessary on this rig.

For terminating the rig we add a loop which can then be attached to quick change swivels etc

The rig is terminated with a figure of 8 loop knot which is solid and very neat.


If the options you require are not included on the listing just drop us a message and we will be more than happy to make the rigs as required.  

 

TIPS:-

If you're using a wafter or popup, please check the buoyancy is correct before casting into the water.  For wafters, use a larger hookbait and then trim it with scissors until you get the correct buoyancy so the hook is laying flat and the hookbait is wafting above it and masking the hook from view. The buoyancy of a wafter will vary depending on the size and brand so it's always worth testing your rig in the margin or a tub before casting.  The same goes for popups where you can either add more putty or trim some of the popup so it sinks and sits as you require.
