Troubleshooting

Rig tangles easily

Ensure you are handling the rig carefully when attaching bait and casting. Store the rig flat and untangled in a rig wallet.

Float is not sitting correctly

Check that the shotting is still securely in place and that no shot has become dislodged. Ensure the float itself is not damaged.

Hook is not sharp enough

While the hooks are high quality, continuous use can dull them. Inspect the hook point regularly and consider replacing the rig or sharpening the hook if needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These rigs are designed to be used straight from the packet. Simply attach your chosen bait to the hook and connect the rig to your pole line using your preferred pole connector or loop. Ensure the float sits correctly in the water with the supplied shotting.

Compatibility:

  • Pole Length: The 12ft (approx. 3.6m) line length is suitable for most standard pole fishing setups.
  • Baits: Ideal for sweetcorn, soft pellets, banded hard pellets, and meat.
  • Water Types: Best suited for still or slow-moving waters, particularly commercial fisheries.

Care: After use, carefully unhook any remaining bait and gently rinse the rig under clean water to remove any debris. Store the rig flat and dry, ideally in a rig wallet or its original packaging, to prevent tangles and maintain the condition of the line and hook.
