usualy about 1/8 inch away from the bait, works well on catfish as well strangler, caught my share of kitties with a hair rig including a 44 flattie, ask badchad, he is the catfish king lol

I do like catching catfish. We've caught a few on my boat this year.

I wanna try my hand at this carp thing.

In reference to the link that was taken down

It's posts like this that is the reason this sport will never grow to its full potential. I WAS a bowfisherman for a few months I DID use treble hooks. Now I don't use a bow or treble hooks and fish primarily with euro gear for carp. Now that I've made it this far into carping you guys want to sit back and label me a BF and a troll. Lmao you have got to be kidding me. You ever stop and think what and why did I change the way I fish? And how could we use that to our advantage? Hmmm he could relate to about 90% of fisherman that target carp. Because lets be real you guys make up 10% of carpers, and that's being generous. He might be able to relate to them and explain why he stopped. But instead you would rather be hatefull. I've come to expect nothing less from the majority of this group

To the people that have gotten to know me this is not directed at you.

What are you talking about?

Do you have anything to add about variations of the Hai Rig?

I'm starting to have better success with the Blowback Rig, and I use Braid. I'm looking for a local source for Rig Rings without splits on them.

Lol nice switcheroo

Yeah I just use 50lb braid. I'll get some coated braid before too long

2fish...let it go man. All I see is people talking about the hair rigs now. Youre the only one continuously bringing this up.

I respect the fact that you are a reformed fish killer and have learned more about fish care. Good stuff..keep it up.

In his defense the post was pointless to begin with....we are constantly trolled...
Why keep promoting it...
No offense Chad but this thread should have been removed when it went up

The mods need to step it up in this section or get some people in here that will.

Too much harrassment going unchecked and its out of control
.

Which way do you wrap when you are tying your Knotless Knot?

Clockwise over the top

I wrap so that the first turn is on the solid side of the eye, not where the eye and shank meet.

Same here.

Learned that from cragos videos. Id been doing them wrong.

always done it this way. in response to the link all is forgotten. IMO your a great dude and im glad you have become a part of us carp anglers! see you at the ATC next year
