- How to tie my version of The Blowback Rig. I go into detail in step by step format, explaining one of the most effective carp fishing bottom bait and wafter presentations but with one difference that is guaranteed to catch more carp! My rig has changed over the last year or so and I've made a difference in components which seems to have upped my catch rate and improved hook holds 100% Hopefully this will will help you catch more carp too!

I've used this rig for the last 2 years. I've had multiple carp - many over 20, a 32 and a 35.5lb (uk). Probably caught over 120 fish and missed about 5 takes and had 1 spit the hook at the net.
This rig works in any lake and condition.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING!
Glad it's working for you mate. Have you seen my latest video? This rig is better still 😉
Could you use this rig in a PVA bag??
I’ve been carp fishing (on & off) for nearly 40 years & find your videos interesting, informative, impartial & more importantly not full of the usual obligatory product ads that blight the 2 big UA-cam channel professional carp video makers. (I won’t mention any names..) Keep it up 👍🏻
I appreciate that! Thanks
Been using this rig for years, never let me down
It's a winner mate 👌👍
That carp at the start has some lovely scales
Thanks it was a pleasure to catch 👌
Definitely trying this rig on my lunch break tomorrow. Me and my cousin have a little competition going between us. Thanks and keep em coming!
Good luck mate. You can be sure that this rig will give you the edge you need!
Thanks for explaining the mechanics !
You're very welcome
Yet a gain another great video. I’m new to carp fishing and your videos will help me going forward. Going to my local lake on 28th and will definitely try and use these rigs and ideas. My water is quite a tough lake and am yet to catch in my previous 2 visits, hopefully this will help boost my chances!
Martin Berry thanks mate and glad I can help! I really hope my videos help you catch a few carp and if there’s anything you’d like to see in future videos just let me know 👍👍
Hi simon. Unfortunately I blanked again 😢 it seems I may need to get into longer sessions on my local lake, day fishing is quite tough but will persist, and hopefully catch one of the mid 30s carp in this beautiful lake! In the future I’d love to see you venture to this lake to do a video. It’s called milemead fisheries and it’s in tavistock Devon. Maybe I could learn a thing or two 😁
Just knocked 2 of these rigs up after watching this video last night ..hooking ability unreal on back of my hand ..will be using for my fishing tommorow .Will let you know how I go on ..for me though thanks for sharing ..as you say such a small change but what a diff thst small change makes ..game changer ...top man
david williams cheers for the comment mate and I hope they are successful for you. I’m sure any fish that picks up one of these will find it hard to get away with it! Good luck and let me know how you get on 👍

How did get on with this rig David? Any luck?
@@kaibrown987 have done well on it mate it nails them
david williams thank you for the reply. Might have to have a couple then haha.
What a stunning scaley carp i am a big fan of the blowback rig fished snowman style those little tweaks to the mechanics of your rig are interesting it certainly has been doing the buisness for you i will certainly give it a go thanks for sharing
Thanks for that. Yeah the tweaks make all the difference. I seem to loose less fish and the hook holds are great!
Hi great video I'm on a small water with very tricky fish the German rig with a wafter was my go to rig caught me a lot of fish to 35lb but now I feel like I'm getting done a lot so I will be trying your new style of blow back rig👍🎣
Cheers mate you will definitely get better hook holds with this rig or look on my channel for the improved German rig 😉
Just come across your channel, really enjoy the detail and tips you share! Subscribed! Keep up the good work! X

thanks a lot glad you enjoyed it
Hi, great video. Did you try with fluorocarbon and soft braid like hair How it was effective? Thanks
Hi yes that would work well too 👌
when's our next video coming out need somehing good to watch in work, congratulations on 1000 subscribers btw keep up your good work tight lines
will be filming on monday mate so hopefully have it out by the end of the week. I'll be announcing the winner of the competition and talking about my lead set up
Simon Dew Carp Fishing looking forward to it, have tied all my rigs up from your last video and not missed a take on them,great help
Mike Killilea that’s great to hear mate! Good angling 👍
another good video usefull info, 🐟
Thanks mate hope it helps you bag a few!
Simon Dew Carp Fishing cheers for replying, going to get in the shed tommorow and watch it back and tie a few up. keep it up great work love your channel
Tie one up with a longshank and it flips quicker 😎
Thanks for your comment. I agree mate long shank hooks turn way faster. However, long shank hooks, in my experience, tend to lead to hook pulls and mouth damage as the extra length of shank adds leverage during the fight. The shrink tubing being 1.5cm on this rig is quite long to emulate a long shank but is flexible so that it can't lever the hook out or damage the carps mouth. Most situations I'm currently fishing involve snags etc so you have to play the fish harder so I prefer the rig set up like this. If I was fishing open water with no snags I might go to a long shank as you can take your time with the fight and not risk pulling the hook.
@@SimonDewCarpFishing yep spot on mate glad you mentioned those points. Keep up the good work 👍
icuattheboozer cheers mate 👍
@@SimonDewCarpFishing yes totally agree about longshanks causing mouth damage,
Iv stopped using them now as they do some nasty damage to the carps mouth.
I am going to try this, I've been using similar as longshank are banned on my current water. But I do agree with using the longshank for it to be more effective, but never under a size 6, anything under can tear and pull, I personally prefer 4's, I've not had a single hookpull (barbless or barbed) in donkeys years, but it has to be coupled with the right lead arrangement, a heavy (I use 4oz) semi fixed inline running lead or inline drop off, swivel leads are what cause the problem imo, I can only presume the "play" in the lead arrangement allows the fish to shake the hook from the point it pricks on the bottom lip into weird parts of the mouth, before the actual weight of the lead comes into play. I have torn a total of zero mouths with them, and nailed in the sweet spot on the bottom lip every single time, it is my go to "get that bite in the net" rig👍
Hi Simon .. can your rigs be used as a heli rigs as i have just used 25lb jelly wire then stripped back the braid at the hook end then put on a anti tangle sleeve thanks .
If your correct then why are curve shank hooks so popular?
All hooks have their place and people have their own preference but since I tried it like this it's definitely improved hook holds and less mouth damage so that's why I prefer them 👌
Nice one...
Jonathan Thornycroft cheers fella 👍
Just found your channel, like how you explain what you're doing ,I'll use this next time I go. 👍
Cheers mate much appreciated tight lines 👌
Great blog blow back rig looks good could that be ok for a wafter bait
David Fisher thanks mate and yes definitely a wafter would work perfectly with this rig. I’d recommend having the ring opposite the barb or even opposite the point for the mechanics to work properly. You could even do away with the ring altogether so the hair comes out near the eye of the hook 😉
No:
A wafter on a blowback rig will end up all over the shop when the carp tries to eject.. With wafters, same as pop ups, you should be on a D rig presentation with the bait tight to the hook. I hate wafters personally, they are massively overrated and waft up and out the way too easily when there's a feeding fish present. I use one only with a bottom bait as a ''semi wafter'' lol
Great video, many thanks. Have made several of these rigs and look better than the pre made ones.
Thanks mate hope they work for you 👌👍
Tied and tried the rig with the sweet corn today and caught two low 20s But both fish were nailed in the top of the mouth please advise why
Glad it caught for you mate. That's weird I don't think I've ever hooked a carp in the top lip except floater fishing! Might just be a freak occurrence keep trying the rig and see how it goes 👍
Great video I have said it before love the detail you go into and sharing your rigs and tips which most don t do so thanks will def try the link with corn
One question why do you pierce the shrink tube and pull through the hook link material? What is the diff to just coming out if the tube normally? Thanks gareth
Gareth Hughes thanks for your comment mate and thanks for watching. The hook link coming out the wall of the shrink tube does several things really. Firstly it helps the hook drop down when the bait is picked up as the putty near the hook pulls the tubing down more efficiently this way. Also the hook turns quicker when the rig is tightened up due to the angle the hook link exits being more acute. If you try the rig the standard way and then like this and try the palm test you’ll see what I mean 😉
@@SimonDewCarpFishing that's great thanks for getting back to me so quickly and explaining thanks gareth
Gareth Hughes no worries mate happy to help. Tight lines 👍
Good vid bud and good rig, out of interest what strength coated hooklink are you using?
Dale Black cheers mate sorry only just seen this I use 25lb Fox camotex semi stiff 👌
Hi Simon, will these rigs work with smaller hooks? great videos
Yes no reason you couldn't use a smaller hook. I used to use size 8 and 10 all the time and did well with them 😉
Can I ask what kind of braid you are using and what size (width) of shrink tubing you use please? Great Vid!!
Thanks
D
Hi mate I use fox camotex semi stiff and angling iron shrink tube 👌
In my opinion the distante between hook and bait shall be min. 0.5 cm
Cristian Puscas yes that’s around the gap I’ve got here 👍
Sort of correct, depends completely on bait and hook size..
Hi Simon, when you use the baiting needle to pierce the shrink tubing and pull the hook and braid through the tubing, do you pull the braid through the hole you pierced or through end of tubing that’s cut at angle I couldn’t see clearly on video. Many thanks 👍
James Chamberlain through the hole mate 👌
Read any jim gibbinson book for how to correctly make n use the line aligner this is nothing new used it over 20 yrs
Nice rig mate I’m guessing this would probably work for barbel on a river
Cheers mate and yes it would definitely work. I would scale down the hook to a size 8 as generally you use smaller hook baits for barbel. Also Maybe use a longer rig with supple braid to give the bait more natural movement in the flow. Hope this helps
Simon Dew Carp Fishing thanks so much for the reply. Yeah my rigs are not that good and need an overhaul, try something different and watch your videos have been a real help. So thumbs up feller and keep up the good work. Cheers👍🏻
You're welcomes mate and thanks for watching. Hopefully this rig will bag you a monster barbel this autumn!
You don't need anything so complicated for carp, let alone barbel
Loved the video! I know im abit late but just got back into fishing and need some rig tips !! As i am a renewed amateur is there any way you can link me some of these products as i am having difficulty locating all of the hooks shrink plastic and things like that. If this is too much trouble dont bother, just looking for a nudge in the right direction.
Go onto angling direct website and carp fishing terminal tackle or just search up the items, or pop into your local tackle shop and ask
In my opinion the palm test isn't necessary, having a hook that drops down when picked up is far more beneficial to getting a hook hold.
Not everyone agrees with the palm test I know but in my opinion it's the best way we have of testing whether our rigs turn when the hook link is tightened. I've tried it with other versions of this rig and this version definitely turns so much quicker and more consistently. It gives me confidence and I think thats important with any rig and it certainly catches fish and gives me great hook holds. Also the hook drops down as you can see in the video so either way it's a winner!
Thanks for your comment by the way, Im always interested in other peoples opinion especially when it comes to rigs, I find it fascinating trying to constantly improve them
Agree with the confidence thing. You have both things going on so it's a double whammy. I've always found that it's where the hair stop is along the hook shank ( i.e opposite the barb) that determines if it falls into that hooking position, or not, rather than a out turned eye. Thats why I've never been one for having the stop on the bend, the hook is always upside down, when picked up. Anyway, good video and keep them coming.
Yeah that's true the position of the hair on the shank affects the dropping of the hook. Also, have you tried loosening the fibres of the uncoated section of braid by rubbing between your fingers? This makes that section of braid much more supple and allows the hook to drop much faster. Also do this on the hair to make the bait move more naturally. In my opinion rigs with swivels etc like the ronnie, offer no advantage over using braid as a braid, if supple enough, will turn faster than a swivel anyway
Yeah, totally agree with what you're saying about rigs that are relying on swivels for movement ( except chod). I part the fibres at the hinge section of my multi rig and it swivels just as freely. I tend to whip a dental floss hair to the hook shank, when needing to mount a bait that way, so the fibres are naturally loose.
Is it possible for the links to the items so i can buy the equipment in this video please? I am new to fishing so some of these items are not obvious for me.
Hi mate if you go to Www.anglingiron.co.uk you will find everything you need 👌
Is the AB shot rig using a different hook? As the eye looks out turned?
Great video I used this rig on my local lake and had 3 decent catches, I’ve only just got into carp fishing so this may sound like a stupid question but the putty kept sliding down the hook link, is there something I’m doing wrong or any tips to keep in on better?
get it as warm and dry as u can before putting it on, also dry ur hook link as much as u can
Put a tiny shot on the hook length and cover that with the putty.
👍👍👍
Can u help me please I am going to be fishing a weedy lake in the next month for 2 weeks what rig would you recommend to fish on top of the weed please
Helicopter rig isn’t bad for weedy lakes
Depending on the depth of weed, but pretty much agree with the above above, a helicopter rig using thinking anglers C-clips in 6lb, coupled with korda safety beads. The top bead will pop before the lead does, so in the event of a fish weeding you up, you can pop the lead through applying pressure, but god forbid you get cut off while the lead is still on, the fish can still use the lead as intended to pop the top bead and rid itself of the leader. I'd suggest using a chod rig and a scattered baiting pattern of 15's so they hang up in the weed that your fishing in. As a side note, I've happily chucked a 4oz lead 70yds on the 6lb C-clip
Hook?
👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍
👍👍
Simon get that fish back in the water before you open up on your life story.....
Fish was fine mate but point taken
I have nothing against these people making videos but I have to ask, why does this guy constantly keep looking at the carps tail, has he got a script to read from hidden there it’s comical and annoying at the same time. Also when you describe the rig and the hook with out turned eye etc etc what your saying isn’t actually true or correct, you do the palm test and it takes a fortnight to turn are you serious???
Simon Goodwin it just gives me time to think fella. It’s quite hard talking to camera and working out what you’re going to say. Looking away just helps me re-compose. Do you have a rig you would use that turns faster than this then I’m always willing to try new things to improve my results 😉
Simon Goodwin you sir are an absolute muppet, until you upload videos of multiple carp being caught and tips that hundreds of people take on board, your comments are completely void!
Great video and thanks for sharing your tweaks.. will be adding this tweak to my bottom bait rigs. Subscribed 👍
Christian Dowling cheers fella 👌
