The Lock Multi - Combi Rig

Lock Multi Combi Rigs – Advanced Hinged & Multi-Rig Mechanics

Our Lock Multi Combi Rigs combine two of the most effective mechanics in modern carp fishing: the hinged anti-eject properties of a stiff boom/supple section combi rig, and the quick-change versatility of a Multi Rig. Engineered to adapt seamlessly to pop-ups, wafters, or balanced bottom baits, this setup provides total reliability on virtually any lakebed.

Hand-tied and precision-checked by Ricks Rigz, each rig utilizes a stiff boom section joined via a streamlined Albright knot to a supple loop crafted from ultra-durable Korda Arma Kord braid. The OMC Lock Hook is passed through the loop and secured in position with an OMC Inturn Aligner, establishing an aggressive line-entry angle that forces the hook point to drive straight down into the lower lip upon ejection.

Because the hook rests inside a supple braided loop, it offers clean bait separation while enabling you to replace a blunted hook in seconds—simply slide back the aligner, unloop the hook, and pass a fresh one on without discarding the main rig.

Anti-Eject Hinge Action & Rig Indication Features

The combination of a rigid boom and a supple ~1-inch hook loop produces exceptional anti-tangle performance on the cast while kicking the bait smoothly away from the lead:

• Albright Hinge Connection: Creates a smooth, strong pivot point that allows the hook section to movement naturally while making it extremely difficult for carp to spit out.
• Self-Resetting Architecture: If a carp picks up the bait and drops it without taking, the stiff boom pushes the supple loop back into position, ensuring your bait remains perfectly presented.
• Visual Bite Diagnostic: If a cautious carp picks up the bait without triggering a full alarm run, the supple loop will pull tight against the hook eye—giving you immediate visual feedback when you reel in that you've been "done."

When and How to Fish Lock Multi Combi Rigs

The Lock Multi Combi Rig is an all-season powerhouse presentation designed to perform across varied substrates, including silt, gravel, and light debris.

It is the ideal choice for:

• Presenting pop-ups or wafters over mixed lakebeds, light silt, or low-lying weed
• Year-round campaigns where fast hook replacement saves time on active feeding spots
• Outsmarting wary carp that frequently blow out standard stiff or supple rigs
• Pairing with Helicopter setups over silt/debris or Lead Clip arrangements on firm bottoms

Rig Sizing & Fine-Tuning Presentation Tips

Follow these bankside tips from our rig-tying bench to obtain flawless balance:

• Measurement Standard: Rig length is measured along the stiff boom section; the supple loop section adds approximately 1 inch to the overall presentation length.
• Pop-Up Balancing: Mold a small bead of tungsten rig putty directly around the Albright knot hinge connection. Adjust until only the supple 1-inch loop lifts off the bottom, keeping the boom pinned flat.
• Wafter Trimming: If using wafters or balanced baits, trim the bait down with scissors so the hook lays completely flat on the lakebed with the bait hovering directly above the loop.
