Choose the Hook Size
Match the hook size to your hook bait, target fish and fishery rules. Larger hooks can suit bigger baits, while smaller hooks provide a more discreet presentation.
Everything you need to know about the rig, how it is designed to fish and how to choose the right configuration.
Our Lock Solid Bag Slip D Rigs bring the proven anti-eject advantages of the Slip D setup straight into solid PVA bag fishing. Designed with ultra-short braided hooklinks (typically 3 to 4 inches), this presentation guarantees that your hookbait lands perfectly presented right over your concentrated pile of free offerings, regardless of what sits on the lakebed.
Hand-tied and precision-checked by Ricks Rigz, each rig combines the unique, high-holding-power OMC Lock Hook (available in Micro Barb or Barbless) with specialized OMC Dazzler Aligners. The Slip D loop allows your chosen hookbait—mounted via a rig ring, bait screw, or micro ring swivel—to slide freely toward the eye during ejection. This movement instantly transfers the weight of the bait, making the hook point drop heavy into the optimum position to nail carp square in the bottom lip.
With an ultra-short 3 or 4-inch length, the hooklink pulls tight against your lead the split second a carp takes the bait and turns its head, driving the hook point home for savage, unmissable takes.
Tailor your solid bag presentation to match your venue’s substrate or match your specific loose feed using our range of premium braids and OMC aligner colorways:
Every rig is produced under strict bench quality control, ensuring exact D-loop proportions, neat aligner placement, and razor-sharp hooks right out of the packet.

Practical answers based on this rig's setup, hookbait compatibility and the conditions it is designed to fish in.
This is a Lock Hook Slip D Solid Bag Rig supplied ready tied and ready to fish. The idea is to give you a dependable starting point, then let you choose the hookbait and final options to suit the water in front of you.
This rig works well with Pop Ups, Wafters, Bottom Baits / Boilies, Pellets and Artificial Baits. Whichever hookbait you choose, make sure it is balanced to suit the rig so it settles cleanly and reacts quickly when a carp picks it up.
It is a good option over gravel, silt, mud, clay and weed. I would still check the spot before casting, because a clean presentation matters more than the label on the lakebed. If there is weed, debris or very soft silt, adjust the setup so the rig can settle properly.
This is a versatile rig that can be used through Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. I would still let the conditions on the day guide the final setup, especially water temperature, fish activity and how confidently the carp are feeding.
This rig can be fished with Pop Up Presentation, Wafter Presentation, Bottom Bait Presentation and Critically Balanced Presentation. The final presentation will depend on the hookbait you choose, its buoyancy and the lakebed you are fishing over, so it is worth checking the rig in the edge before casting out.
