Looks interesting, it’s got to be worth a try.

Glad to see you back using this Mark, I know you love tinkering with rigs as do I. I published my own “complicated” popup rig recently in Carpology, I’m sure many people will dismiss them, but they are missing out. They follow and don’t pioneer. Let’s face it, my rig requires a Snell Whipping Knot and yours requires a crimp and granny knot, the average angler is now used to clipping a hook onto a QC swivel and that is as far as their skills allow. The art of rig tying is a rare thing in modern day carping. Long live the rig tinkerers I say! Ps, I haven’t been for 18 months, however I am out there again soon, and the freezer is full up with Royal Marine ;-) be lucky. JP.

Hi James, yes mate, its a bit fiddly to tie and doesn't follow fashion as much but as you know rigs are personal, this one is bloody effective also. I seen your rig and had a little smile to myself, I thought that crafty Parry knows his onions. Hope you get out soon James and hope you catch a biggie mate! All the best.

Looks interesting, I shall have to try it on one rod, thanks,

Just looking back at this video and smiling about how many negative comments there are on how over complicated this rig is. The way Mark has shown it I would say its fairly uncomplicated and straight forward to tie. Extending the hook does really give those carp a problem to deal with when trying to eject an item they have sucked in. I will definitely be giving this rig a try. Off to France shortly on a water with very large carp that are very riggy, I know I've been done a few times on previous trips. Think this might just trip up one of those whackers. Thanks for sharing Mark

Nice rig! I noticed this rig from one your first video's on KZread I think, did tie it a couple of years ago, but havent had the chance to test it yet. I geuss now is a good time as ever.

I think I will sit and make one up and will try it, all be it very cautiously !

Very interesting that!!💪🎣

Looks a very good rig for the big girls will give it a go on the elphicks North lake very soon!

Great!!! Thanks!!! ✌️✌️✌️!!!

Like it!

I like the knockers,means more fish for the innovative to catch😁👍🏼

Originally see this with a tungsten bead bedded up against the knot to stop the swivel eye going over it .

Well done Bryan on the rig great rig give it try let you has when looks deadly pick up rod on that day unless flying of pick it up bag fish chips Nice fish give it a go

The stiffer the rig very difficult to eject but also more difficult to get into the mouth in the 1st place.

Hi mark very interesting rig can see that working open water over a spread of boilies quick question do you crush down the crimp on the hook section or leave it as you are folding the mouthtrap at the right angle.

@DunkinBiscuits

Thats what i wondered as well, he didn't crush the crimp in the video but maybe he left that part out. I would imagine you should crimp it tight. Will definitely have to try this out

The complete opposite view to Simon Crow who only uses long braided hook links. Catch them on anything really !

@banditfishing1558

Yes because there is a swivel but no because it isn’t directly onto the hook, so therefore personally I wouldn’t think it would count as a version of the 360/Ronnie rig

When kinking/ bending/ pinching the stiff boom material does it weaken the material at all..? Risking loosing fish possibly..?

by far, the most versatile rig around never had a bad hook hold simple to make and use in any situation in my eyes it's the perfect Rig , also apart from hook change i think I've made 10 in 2 and a half years and possibly 4 of them was because I was bored 😂😂😂

I've fished for carp since the 80s and the amount of wonder rigs that I've seen and read about in the mags and social media is laughable.the deadliest rig is the rig placed on feeding fish untangled with a needle sharp hook...

It's not for you then Andrew! lol It's so not complicated, the Ronnie has more components.

Interesting rig, but hate multi style rigs incase you do get done & your d ends up non existent & the bait by the hook eye, ie not fishing.

Seems brave of you to trust a big fish to the hope of the overhand knot, not pulling through the eye of that swivel.. I'm sure it has worked before, but I personally wouldn't trust that.
