- Carp Fishing Rigs... a load of old b******s! Carp pro, Ian Chillcott has his say | Carp Fishing 2020
"If there are a thousand things which are important to me in carp fishing, then rigs come around number 937 on that list; there is simply too much crap talked about them," boldly states carp fishing legend, Ian 'Chilly' Chillcott. "I have only ever found one style of fishing Hair Rigs, and that came from Lenny Middleton in 1980. Everything ‘invented’ since, is just an adaptation of the original. It was the rig that I would use, and I am sure, very effectively too."
In this video, Chilly goes into depth about the fundamentals of a carp rig and why you shouldn't be led by fashions, as he wonderfully sums up... "There is no denying that the mechanics of the Hair Rig should never have to be as complicated as some would have you believe."

I love this bloke, he’s in the game but doesn’t play any games, doesn’t mince his words is humble & obviously has talent...
Also, a very nice guy.
Ians speaking my language, keep it simple and don't follow trends, Roger that
Talks a lot of sense and I admire Fox for letting him say what he wants.
Agreed
20 years ago I caught all my fish using a line aligner made with Kryston Merlin braid. I never had any issues. Bottom baits and pop ups. Same rig pretty much. These days I use almost the same rig, just with coated braid or sometimes with mono. Still catch.
Always a pleasure to listen to. Honest and down to earth. After 35yrs of carp fishing I never used a Chod Rig either! Keep it simple.
A lot of these fancy rigs and stuff is all about selling tackle it’s a money spinner
100%! Carp fishing it big business now days and there’s nothing wrong with that, and all these new gadgets and rigs are great. But that doesn’t mean you’re gonna catch more and that the old ways don’t work anymore.
@@jimjam8149 Exactly, the original hair rig caught loads of big fish, today’s rigs are over complicated if you ask me
Think it's more along the standing out. Everyone wants to work for a tackle company these days, everyone's either trying to do something different effectively or trying to take amazing pictures for insta. Tackle company's just capitalise on it.
Ian chilcott.... Him, dave lane and Terry hearn are the only people that when they start talking, you better start listening. I love his no nonsense approach, keeping it simple and effective. It's also so nice to hear chillys opinions on the ronnie, I hate it myself.
Your right mate , so much is bollox now !!!! I still think keven maddox book carp fever holds water , he does not get the credit he should get !!!!
Terry Hearn for me is a fucking God
@@danjames5552 yes indeed. Couldn't agree more.
I'd add Kevin nash
Glad you looking so well after everything,that advice ans reasoning best iv heard,iv fished all my life ,im 48,got in to carp fishing 5 years ago,had good success had a 32 common ,27 mirror,23 leather then started to hit a wall,now watching you,has just made me realise ,changing for sake of it,new bait ,new rig,it doesnt matter its where you fish,so glad i watched this given me a reason to fish,how i fish,and for that,i am truly grateful,thankyou,
Awesome 👌
He speaks the truth-No bullshit !!
Today carp fishing is about marketplace and longer about the enjoyment of carp fishing !
Top man , I’ve been carp fishing for many years , and always listen to him , this fella speaks in the real world . Keep it up chilly
When I started carp and course fishing in 1977 we didn't have much and no dvd no internet we had to learn on our own and there was about 12 to 18 of us in the early 80s proper carping in the northeast.Still remember Dacron braid hooklinks and fishing zigs in 81 to 82 simple times and making carp cake at the time too.
I’ve Was a bailiff on Yateley for years Ian was always a gentleman & one of only a few top anglers who would put you right on things top man 👍
This guy is just legendary and a true inspiration to the sport we all love . And a fue true words spoken big love chilly you legend 🎣🎣
keeping it real and simple Ian. Well done sir. This sport needs more like you. Merry Christmas.
Agree totally, over the past 3 years have been sucked in trying the new trend of rigs, but always have better results with a simple hair rig
I like the hair rig. It's flexible and can use any bait I want on it. The only thing I've changed is using a lead clip
@@supernoodles908 have you moved to or from a lead clip?
Glad to see Mr willcott back on the Bank fishing and giving his priceless wisdom
Thank you Carpology, what a brilliant person to explain his ways and means of catching carp.. brilliant advice.....
Started using netted pva bags brilliant saves chucking in loads of ground bait and over baiting the swim
Total Legend, completely agree with everything had says here. I’ve always felt that all these weird an sdc wonderful rigs people com Ed up with are:-
1. To sell more tackle
2. To be seen as the next Billy Big Nuts of Carp fishing.
Hair rig, needle sharp hook, PVA mesh or bag, you’ll catch Carp😁😁
Plus I've done my own rigs and baits for all my carp fishing years and haven't changed them for thirty years now i.e. tie my own hook lengths hairs glugged my own baits with own home made gluggs and flavours and had some top results with very little but keeping it simple why complicate something that is easy... Nice watch Ian great listening to you man after me own Hart.
Straight to the point, plus a few great stories thrown in as well 🎄👍.
When Ian talks everyone should listen.
I’m a novice and thank you for that advice always love the fox brand since a youngster left fishing many years ago due to busy work life now I have time to do fishing being honest I’ve been a victim of fashionable end tackle Korda was recommended but after £400-£500 quids worth and found it not working on a water I then look into other rigs and bought more and more end tackle got to more than a £1k now
One to add I’m glad I purchased all fox rods reels Camolite bags bivvy etc keep up the awesome work
now one idea you should do is bring in a bait boat bag I’ve ordered ruckall instead for the time being and bivvy heaters an iPad stands for the bivvys 👍anyway my gut instinct was right I just wished I followed it live an learn
At last someone who is like me I thought I was alone,we learnt by not copying,by believing in what we were doing,people laughed because my fishing was based on carp and all fish are afraid of what they can't see not what they can see,good old black dacron no more spooking. Well done my friend as with you my methods will reighn supreme. Happy xmas.
Real legend indeed...The running rig still my favorite. 🎣🎣 Agreed Chilly...it’s where u put the rig.
Great vid, always love your insights chilly, tight lines
Just went back to the very first rig I ever made the lign aligner blow back rig. I had the best session of my life. Never changing again!
Well said chilly 50 plus year I've been fishing and I believe in keeping it simple.
Good old Chilly,good old common sense.To many people get lost in the world of rigs and the latest must haves but neglect to find the fish!! Chilly just proves its all about the dingbat art of watercraft,cracking video mate.
As a new carp angler thankyou,I like simple,and u just gave me the confidence to go fish a lake that I've been keeping away from because I don't think I'm good enough
Thanks
I've got that fox rig box and it's excellent !! Comes with magnetic green spools,which I think are for Zigs,but I use for Leadcore leaders and Other leaders which are set up ready to use "spliced" with swivel ect on.
And the main compartment HOLDS SO many rigs !!
Excellent bit ok kit 👌
A brilliant bloke and a top class carp angler no bull tells it how it is. Great video💯✌🍻🎣🎣
I've started using the ronnie/spinner rig not because it's a trend, because it cuts down the cost of buying never ending hooklink material which ain't cheap, all i need change is the hook. For me its all about saving the pennies and still catching fish. 90% of carp fishing is watercraft and rest is bait application and rigs and i believe a well placed ronnie will catch more than a well placed basic rig.
100% ive found a lot less hook pulls with the Ronnie as well, and confidence in presentation!
I do think the Same. With a 10 meters spool you have enough line to tie 20 spinners... they can last you even more than a season.
In the same time you will maybe change 50/70/100 hooks!
All you'd change with a 360 is the hook and hookbead.
@@darrylclarkson4208 360 rig is very well known to be a dangerous rig as in terms of ripping a carps mouth to bits. So I'll stick to the more safer option.
PVA Bags is all i use for my carp fishing ,,, nice little bundle in one spot and had some great results .
My brother always said you can make angling as complicated as you like but keep it simple because that's how fish feed simple,chilly is a carping LEGEND he tells you as it is awesome angler chilly.
I used to be that guy all the latest rigs for the last 9 or so years I use 1 rig for boilies a variation on a multi rig and one for particle
Brilliant advice, yet again! Thanks, Ian...
One of the few I truly listen too, probably because he speaks English... 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Regards from an ExPat now living in CHICAGO, IL
Still got some black Dacron from 25 yrs ago, things have changed since coming back to fishing recently. I still try to keep things simple using rigs only when circumstances demand it. As the old saying goes KISS.
I have been fishing for 35 years and he's absolutely right it's where you put it and the bait with a basic hair rig I make my own and there not the same and they work
Great vid, great to see IC back to health.
Total legend no nonsense stuff and he does the business no agenda
Well said. The original mechanic of the Hairrig hasnt ever changed. I go even a little further and only use a Hook with a Hooklink-Material on a Knotlessknot. All thats changing are Length and Material. But whatever someone find more confidence in cant be bad for him.
Truly one of the best, all the best Chilly.
Could not agree more. Need more insight from you Chilly, wise words need to be spread.
Great bloke Chilly always talks sense and very nice bloke John
Well said mate , every thing you said is so true. Brilliant what more could a fantastic angler of said 👍👍👍👍
True story I'd pre tied and put my 21mm pellets on my rods. Was end of November and was going to a lake that was rimmed. My mate said we can go to Holliefieid on the Crooked mile instead. Fished the top lake with said baits attached but I glugged them in my home made stuff.
My mate said I'm going to go small with little hooks as he had been reading g mags to go small and light in winter.
I had a 21lb 7oz common out on my rig and mate had nothing out all day.
I had 2 out on the 21mm pellets .
Goes to show, if everyone is doing the same thing I'll do the opposite.
Happy fishing mate.
One thing my mate and I worked on was an adjustable zig in the 80s. 👍
Loved this, will be taking note and trying some new things
Straight solid advice 👌 keeping it real 💯 thank you Ian 😊 top man
I've been carp fishing for over 40 years and believe it was Kevin Maddox who invented the hair rig. His book Carp Fever was one of the major influences that contributed to the enormous interest in modern carp fishing in my opinion.
Anglers have it all on a plate now. They dont know do they mate.
Never a truer word said something simple and effective sharp and reliable you’re only worry should be where to place that hook bait well said chilly
So refreshing to hear when I first got back into fishing went the about 30 different rigs and all was a load of bollocks shop hook good knots and a bit of putty is all I need . Apart from Ronnie rigs I do like a ronnie
Once upon a time it was called
"The hair rig" 😲🤣
The separation of bait and hook was the game changer.
Finally a fisherman who who talks real keep it up chilli
Says it like it is .. dying breed .. stay well & keep it coming chilly
I think it’s all down to individual confidence. You find a bait and rig that you get results with and you take it every where. I’ve done it myself and then gone on to try other baits and rigs but in my head I’ve never been able to relax so revert back to the tried and tested methods .
This summer I fished a very weedy shallow park lake that had the green candy floss weed in abundance as well as drifting weed beds and some flow due to it being stream fed . I decided to fish long running chods ( thank you Jim Shelley ) I’d fished chods before but never caught on them or had faith as I preferred the hinge .
Long story short I caught a lot of fish and shocked myself ... the weed was so bad I never saw another angler ... and it’s a free to fish lake 🥳🥳🥳
Horses for courses I believe 👍🏻😊🌞
Like a breath of fresh air listening to Ian Chillcott.
Some very wise words people should take note hair rig and the line aligner are some of the most important developments in carp fishing well put chilli
Thanks chilly , very informative .
I carp fish in Australia and I keep my rig simple I don’t use a hair rig or anything fancy and bait just some bread rolled in sugar on the hook and catch plenty like that been doing it like that for years
Well done Chilly and great video guys!
Love this guy ! No bullshit , from a top bloke who’s been doing the do for years?
Good on ya fella, honest talk ...
THATS A TRUE INSIGHT INTO MODERN DAY CARPING PUT INTO A SUPERB PROSPECTIVE OF HOW SOME PEOPLE WORK.... TOLD BUY A TRUE MASTER. TIGHT LINES GUYS GIRLS
Couldn’t agree more bud, used basically the same 3 rigs for 35 years myself and they still catch carp
. Keep it simple with as less knots as feasibly possible I always say 👍🏻 decent informative video this, nice work
Absolutely bang on keep it simple .
Great advice, I’m a newbie and am overwhelmed with the different advice given, and every different advice given,(according to the person giving it) is the best 😂👍🏻👍🏻
One thing they will all tell you, you’ve got to get on the fish
Keep it simple mate! Use what youre comfortable with but done overcomplicats things!
Find the fish, feed the fish , catch the fish 🤣🤣
There is a fishing term I have not heard in a while, Dacron. I still have and will always keep as a reminder some light brown Dacron. It reminds me have how long I have been a carp angler. I also use some of the most basic carp rigs which have worked for me for over 30 years.
Dacron has been used by lots of anglers without them even realising. Most sinking braided reel lines are literally Dacron, regardless of what marketing spiel is put on it by the manufacturers. Same with the braided leader material such as ArmaKord or Nash ArmourBrajd - both are Dacron in the majority with a couple of threads of different materials for some reason or another.
Still got a spool of black Dacron, 1986 ish iirc.
@@mufc20timesbitches36 gardner dacron was the nuts way back caught most of my fish onnit
You guys use line aligners/rig tubing? Never had the idea it made the hook turn better never had a bad hooking not using it yet ive had a 10 or so fish poorly hooked when i did use it. Stopped it and never got a bad hooking again.
Millwards Black Spider was the first one I used.
This is bang on!
I could watch & listen too chilly allday long somebody needs to get him on a podcast great watch as always 👊👊
He's been on the carp cast 👍 great listen
Missed that ohwell something else to listen too 👍
Good old fashioned method feeding works every time 💪👍
Very good!
Im starting ti use zig rigs and cage feedrs as im fishing a fast river and 30foot deep so i can adjust the depth of a zig rig normall waterways ill fish a hair rig woth a method feeder
Very interesting video thanks
27:59. Fantastic life advice
I really needed to watch and hear this. I'm new to Carp fishing (this year) and it's so confusing all the different rigs to use and hookbaits etc. Still yet to catch a carp, blanked a handful of times now...used hair rigs, Ronnie rigs, zigs and chod rigs but still nothing. I think I'm over complicating things and not been patient enough with the rig I put out before changing. I think what Ian says about it matters more where the carp are is so true. I need to learn more about that side of fishing I think.
Brilliant
Always keeps it real 👏👏👏
Top Top video straight to the point ;)
What a refreshing video! Well done Chilly for saying it like it is. After 20yrs away from the sport, I feel like a dinosaur at 42yrs old - as Simon Crow also says; keep it simple. I’d love to know if he sharpens his hooks, but that’s for another day...
Im sure I’ve seen a video where Chilly said he has never sharpened a hook in his life, I could be wrong though
I use the iq d-rig and I've always caught on it so like ian says keep it simple and use what works for you.
He talks a lot of sense - super sharp hooks and a rig that doesn’t tangle, a good bait and a the right location. I’ve always preferred baits fished on the bottom of the lake, for me, they out-fish pop-ups every time.
Hi is the fox illusion stiff material
Nice one Ian oldish school 😉🐺
Too much following the crowd
Fish for enjoyment 🥳☝️
Met him few times great man
Good commonsense video, well done lan !!
Brilliant do more with chilli
Legend
The chilly stiffy doo daaa wham banger rig 😁😁😁. What a legend ❤️
Chilly is cooler than even his name suggests :-) and I agree with what he says... But there's a nagging part of me that screams: Imagine if every carp angler in the world just used a line-aligned hair rig? Besides the fact that this would bankrupt a fair number of tackle companies, it would be dead boring!
Like the info
I agree with everything rob elgie just said!
Been fishing for more years than I can remember sea and freshwater. This guy's makes so much sense. It's money spinner for most . Remember guys

I use his advice in South Africa where carp never saw a boilie or a rig and only get cought on sweetcorn small 20s I went specimen with mainline bait his advice first week 54 fish all upper 20s touching 30 pound now I'm king of that lake lol in town 😂😂
Thanks Ian, you talk a lot of sense keep it simple.
Too many trying to over complicate things to outwit something that swims around thinking of one of two things - reproduction & eating!!! All this to try to ‘trip up’ something the swims around & will eat it’s own shit!!! Pigs with fins.
I've fished many lakes, the silent pva mesh or stringer approach has always worked for me. Location Location Location.
