My brother left me some tackle when he moved to Australia a few years back. I dug a rig case out just out of curiosity the other night and it was full of KD rigs. We used to use them all the time ! Not sure why I stopped really. Anybody use this rig nowadays ? Don't see much written about it anymore with it only being 2 components 😂

Was thinking of trying a KD rig with some wafted tigers on my next trip.

It was/is a great rig and I used it in the past to great success.
However i think on one of the old underwaters it was shown to be a sub optimal presentation due to the ability for the hair to wrap around the shank. after being picked up and done several times by fish.

Yeah does look to be abit of a tangler. I seem remember Damian Clarke having a lot of success on it too using maggots with it.

Overrated IMO and far too much paranoia in terms of tangles (even using foam) hook position post being done/investigation etc . . .I used it for a bit with a split shot to overweight but soon found it no more efficient / arguably less efficient than a long hair and a piece of silicone on the bend of the hook . . .
