Agreed, it's like comparing a scaffold pole to a hosepipe.

Is there much difference between IQ2 and Boom?

Thanks mate, I've actually already toyed with this and really like it. The only issue is how long they take to tie, though if you do a few of them you get into a rhythm.

IQ D rig is a good starting point from a simplicity perspective. However have a look at the 'Revolver' rig . . .the 0.40 fluro D is whipped on and protected with a shrink tube kicker but the rest of the rig is a combi tied with an albright (braid hinge to fluro boom) . . .non metal version of a Ronnie D effectively.
I still use a braid slip D multi for a lot of rigs as I'm dropping with a boat and have confidence its presented. . .however I'd def use the Revolver if I was chucking one out / there was a Ronnie ban and certainly in favour of using a ready made D Rig Kicker as they are a waste of time (the D stretches and warps on big chucks / after catching every fish) . . .

For D rigs i tend to use a fluoro hooklink. ESP Ghost remains my favourite

What material are you using now ?
|

I've been using the slip d rig, and had good success on it, though have had circumstances where I've reeled in and the supple d has wrapped around the shank. This has led to me losing a bit of confidence in it and going back to the mono/fluoro d rig I used to use.
I'm looking for recommendations on hooklink material to use (type and breaking strain) which would be used on a heli setup.
Primarily I'm looking for something anti-tangle but still have an element of suppleness to ensure it can extend into carps mouth. My sessions are generally short so need to be confident I am fishing.
