Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use these rigs without a Boom?

While technically possible, these rigs are designed as the 'business end' of a combi rig and perform best when attached to a stiff Boom section.

How many rigs are in a pack?

Each pack contains 3 ready-tied Korda DF Wide Gape Loop Rigs.

What is the breaking strain of the braid used?

The standard Korda DF Wide Gape Loop Rigs featured here utilize 18lb test braid.

Are these rigs barbed or barbless?

This specific variant is a barbless version, suitable for venues with strict hook regulations.

How should I store these to keep them straight?

Store the rigs on a flat rig board or in a dedicated rig wallet to maintain the integrity of the braid and prevent unwanted memory.

Can I sharpen the hook on this rig?

Yes, but ensure you are careful not to damage the coating of the hook or weaken the knot connection during the sharpening process.

Troubleshooting

Rig tangling during the cast

Ensure your Boom section is sufficiently stiff and that your bait is secured properly to the rig to prevent flapping.

Loop-to-loop connection slipping

Check that the loops are pulled tight and properly seated; ensure the connection is not under excess tension during the final seating.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Significantly reduces preparation time on the bank
High-quality, reliable knot construction
Perfect for creating consistent combi rigs
Excellent hooking mechanics provided by the DF Wide Gape pattern

Cons

Requires a separate Boom section for full functionality
Fixed length design may limit custom adjustments
Not intended for use as a standalone rig without modifications

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up these rigs, simply pass the loop at the end of the braid section through the loop on your Boom. Feed the hook and the rest of the rig through the loop to create a secure, knotless attachment. Ensure that your Boom section is constructed from a stiff material to maintain the anti-tangle properties of the combi rig. After each session, inspect the braid for signs of fraying and ensure the hook point remains sharp. Store your rigs in a rig case or a flat storage board to prevent the braid from kinking or twisting during transport.
