Hi All,

What id your go to rig where you can just change the hook and re-use the boom section?

And what components do you recommend?

Thanks!

I'm currently using Ronnies with a Gemini boom which I re-use for pop up's. And for wafters/bottom baits, I use a slip D multi rig.

If you have a kettle on the bank, then a Multi rig. (Coated braid, knicked, steamed)
If no kettle then a Spinner\Ronnie rig (flouro boom) with a manufactured kicker. (not shrink tube 'cause pain getting the stuff off) .

I currently use the Gemini Low Level Ronnie booms with size 4 muggas for both wafters and pop-ups. When switching to pop-ups, i slide a nash tungsten swivel knot bead down the boom until it just covers the fusing point.

Have a look on YouTube for the Mike Holly slip d rig, it's an ESP video. Simplicity and does what you're looking for.

Yep, that's the one I use for wafters/bottom baits.

same for me.

currently use a trimmed withy rig sleeve set up line-aligned for my kicker. Using the Gardener ultraskin stiff, I have hooklinks that have lasted me all summer.

I use Mr Pecks multi combi..although I have started making it with hybrid stiff and just stripping the end..it works the same just without tying 2 materials together.

I use the version of HSR that Mark Pitchers promotes

With a Korda Hook klip you can basically use any rig and replace the hooks.

Same for me pop ups. Going to give the meccano rig a go for a bottom bait presentation I think. Same principle really and I like the idea of the long extension of the shank.

I forgot about this rig / variant

What hooks are you guys using for these? Or does it not really matter? I've never been a fan of curve shank hooks tbh

I prefer chod / longshank (smaller sizes) for most of my rigs ideally

Thanks

I use a curve shank, either a Korda one or a Mugga.

I do have some longshank muggas, not sure if they would work perhaps
