This rig, uses a long (up to 6ft) hooklink that stays up and away from the lead in the flow of the river.
The lead is allowed to settle, and is then periodically moved, allowing it to bounce down the swim, making the bait come ‘alive’.
The fish (providing they are there!) will instinctively move to intercept and take the bait.

About the Rigs Page
The Rigs Page is a library of features to illustrate all those rigs that will be useful to both beginners and experienced anglers.
The rigs can be extremely simple and well known, or very complicated and little known, it doesn’t matter providing they make some kind of sense and have a really practical application.
It could be a standard running leger rig that a beginner will appreciate seeing in pictures, or a very complicated anti-eject carp rig that the experienced carp angler would like to see.
If you wish to contribute a rig to this section please remember that the emphasis is on illustration rather than words. Good line drawings are fine in the absence of photographs. Please send to graham@fishingmagic.com
