Carp Expert Silver Carp Rig

The shaft of the rig is threaded. It can be unscrewed and customized to your preference. Whether you want to fish with 2 tablets, 2 feeders, or a combination (1 feeder with 1 tablet), it can be arranged. 

Assembly Tips from the Rig Inventor:

• Rig: The shaft of the rig is threaded. It can be unscrewed and customized to your preference. Whether you want to fish with 2 tablets, 2 feeders, or a combination (1 feeder with 1 tablet), it can be arranged. 

• Main Line: 0.22 braided line. I wouldn't use tinner. I use feeder rods, so I still get the enjoyment of fine-tackle fishing, but I also have a chance of catching big silver carp.

• Hook Leader: 0.25 soft braided line. I tie it with a simple knotless knot. I let one leader drop to the bottom of the lower feeder, and the other leader 1-2 cm below that. For another setup, one hook can be allowed to drop to the middle of the lower feeder and the other to the bottom of the lower feeder.

• Hook: Size 4 strong hook that has proven effective.

• Swivel holding the rig: This should be strong. Minimum load capacity of 25 kg. For the float, a load capacity of 100-120 grams is recommended.

• Tablet: Should last at least 2 hours and dissolve continuously. The used tablet doesn't need to be discarded; after a little drying, it can be baited again, so it doesn't go to waste.

• Groundbait: For 1 kg of material, 5.5 dl of water is needed. Mix it to a dough-like consistency. Press it well into the feeder; don't worry, it will dissolve. Once cast, the rig should not be yanked or adjusted. Leave it at the casting spot. It lasts easily for 40 minutes. Of course, if the angler reels in the rig, it might seem like the feeder is empty because the water washes out the material from the feeder immediately during reeling.

• Lead Ring: The lead ring will greatly ease float fishing for silver carp. Anyone who fishes with the "footed" float method has probably experienced that during casting, the lead slides back on the main line. This can be by as much as 10-20 meters, causing the lead not to fall under the float. The problem with this is that if the water is flowing, the float will drift around. With this lead ring, it is possible to fish with much longer droplines, as the lead will slide all the way down to the end rig due to the large hole. During casting, it flies together with the rig and after hitting the water, it can immediately sink under the float because the dropline slides smoothly through it. The lead is guaranteed to fall under the float, keeping the rig at the casting spot.

Advantages: Use of "any length" dropline, more accurate, longer casts, keeps the float at the casting spot, and prevents the float from drifting if the water is flowing.
