One question we get more than almost any other "what rig should I be using?"

The honest answer is it depends on two things: what's on the lakebed, and what hookbait you're fishing. Get those two right and everything else falls into place.

We've put together a full guide covering the 8 main carp rigs including a basic hair rig, spinner/Ronnie, chod, zig, hinged stiff, D-rig, PVA bag and multi rig, in plain language.

At the top of the guide there's also a quick 4-question quiz that matches you to the right ready-tied rig from our range based on your actual fishing situation.

Today we pause to honor the brave men and women who gave everything so we could live freely — and yes, spend our days chasing carp. 🇺🇸

Wishing you a meaningful Memorial Day.
