premium Ready Tied Tom Dove Style Solid Bag Spinner Rigs
The pva bag version of the iconic spinner rig used by Tom Dove in the Korda films. The aggressive curve of the krank hook coupled with the off set point gives you an amazing hook up ratio.
This version is made for PVA solid bags, made using a supple uncoated braid and razor sharp premium hook, this rig can be placed inside your solid bag along with your free offerings and this gives you a precision method of fishing. You can be assured your hook bait is over your small pile of free offerings because of the bag. The supple braid ensures that your rig can't get tangled and being so short in length any carp the sucks your bait in inevitably makes the rig go tight pulling the hook in to the lip. by using a premium hook like Kamakura Krank you are giving yourself the maximum chance of hooking the fish.
I also offer this rig with a range of shrink tube kicker colours, you can either try to blend everything in and conceal your hook etc or you can do what Korda do and that's use a bright kicker and play on a Carps naturally inquisitive nature where in the films you can see the fish actually go and investigate the rig and hopefully find your bait.
Its all these little tweaks that adds those couple of extra percentage of chances in your favour.
This rig is very similar to the Ronnie Rig or the Turbo German rig, with the exception of the large ring is removed on the swivel, this gives a slightly different reaction to the rig. Tom Dove also only puts a small bit of shrink tube over the eye of the hook, leaving the barrel of the specialist swivel exposed so it gives more movement and reaction to a bite.
This particular style of rig can be used with practically all bait types from wafters to pop ups to tiger nuts critically balanced using some cork.
To get the best out of this rig you should test it in the margin prior to casting out to ensure the presentation is perfect, for a wafter you want your hook laying flat, if you find your bait lifts the hook up simply trim your bait with some scissors until you get it so the hook is flat but the bait is hovering just about the hook helping to mask it from view. If you are using a pop up then you want the hook to sit upright. You might need to add some putty around the crimp nearest to the hook to help counter balance the buoyancy of your hook bait.
