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 Combi Rigs (Danny Fairbrass Style) bring you the exact presentation design showcased in the Korda Masterclass series – where Danny famously banked 64 carp in a single session using fake maize. By pairing a stiff boom material with a short, semi-stiff braided hook section via a seamless loop-to-loop connection, this rig delivers unmatched kick-out properties and brutal anti-eject mechanics on every cast.
Hand-tied and individually inspected by Ricks Rigz, these premium ready made Combi Rigs eliminate air-phase tangles while keeping your hookbait kicking away from the lead. Available with your choice of ultra-clear 25lb Amnesia or our signature Camo Fleck stiff boom material, this rig blends effortlessly into gravel, hard clay, and clear lakebeds nationwide.
Whether you're presenting plastic corn over a bed of particles or dropping wafters on fed spots, the Danny Fairbrass Combi presentation ensures instant hook-turning action the second a carp inhales the bait.
The success of this iconic Combi Rig comes down to the mechanics of the hook link junction. We tie the ¾ to 1-inch hook section exclusively with 20lb Korda Loop braid—a specialized material Danny specifically favours because its slight rigidity prevents the hook from folding back over the boom material during the cast or drop.
Connecting the boom to the hook section via a loop-to-loop joint gives you modular flexibility on the bank. If a hook point gets burred on gravel or you want to switch pattern, you can unloop and replace the hook section in seconds without tying a whole new rig from scratch.
Tailor your setup to your exact fishing style with multiple hookbait attachment options, including Matt Black Micro Flexi Swivels, Matt Black Bait Screws, Rig Rings, or an Adjustable Hair for boilie presentations.
Every rig is tied with strict bench consistency, taking the fiddly knot-tying off your hands so you can focus on finding fish and putting more runs on the board.
The Danny Fairbrass Combi carp rig is easily one of the most reliable rigs for targeting rig-wise carp across commercial day-ticket waters and syndicate lakes.
It is the ideal choice for:
Because the stiff boom resets the hook link if a fish aborts a pickup, your hookbait stays perfectly presented until the next feeding carp moves in.

Practical answers based on this rig's setup, hookbait compatibility and the conditions it is designed to fish in.
This is a Combi Rigs 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, Critically Balanced Presentation and Pellet 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.
