I guess the beauty of the multi is you don't need to retire the rig to do that as well

whats the preference for the putty, on the knot or on the hook length if you have a break in the coating ?

I always go for the knot. I think it's personal preference tbf but to me it makes sense on the knot so you have the stiffer pop up section popped up and then the softer uncoated section still on the deck. Hasnt done me no harm in the years I've been doing it

I tied a couple of multi rigs and used them for the first time at the weekend. So simple to tie, looked perfectly presented in the margin but twice reeled in to find it was tangled. Don't suppose anyone else has come across this to help us first timers on this rig?

Were you using small hook baits mate?
I found it's prone to tangling with small baits (like a lot of rigs tbh). A bit of foam on the hook helps to bulk out the hook bait i.e. gives it separation as it flies.

I use a semi-stiff coated braid with a large anti tangle sleeve. No tangles on every retrieve. 15mm pop-ups and 8 inch hooklength.

I was using a 15mm pop up, although my hook length was only about 3-4 inches. Could this be the issue? Will try with the foam or pva stick maybe. Thanks both of you for your advice

I would only use a rig 3/4 inches inside a solid PVA bag or if I was dropping a rig into rock hard gravel. For fishing situations that warrant using a multi I would always use 6/7 inches as a starting point.
