I’ve added a little twist to the classic hair rig design to improve its performance and I use it with a very effective running lead.
In this tutorial, I revisit an all time classic that has been around for 30 years: the mono hair rig. I’ve been fishing various versions of this rig for the last 3 years and I’ve learnt a lot about it. It may look very simple but there are some tiny little details that are so important to get right. I’ve added a little element to it which enhances its performance and I’ve caught some amazing specimens from a variety of waters while I’ve been testing it.

Thanks for another in depth tutorial , simply explained but with all of the detail that’s needed. The amount and variety of Rig Material on the market these days is ridiculous , it’s as though young Anglers are being conditioned into thinking that if they don’t buy and use the latest products endorsed by certain High Profile Anglers then they have less chance of a bite.

@matthewcollinsangler 3 года назад

Hi James, thanks for taking the time to comment. Glad you like what we are doing here. Your analysis is spot on. That’s exactly how it works. Don’t get me wrong I think some of the big names in carp fishing are creating and innovating some really cool products and in certain circumstances we do need materials that exceed the performance of mono. For most anglers in most situations there is no need. The trouble is that as a novice, you don’t yet understand this as you haven't had the time to work it out for yourself. All the best with your fishing. Cheers, Matt.

@ironforge039 2 года назад

I’m a newbie to fishing carp here in Australia. We find them in virtually every waterway including inner suburbia. Our current laws are that no carp may be returned to the water that’s how much of an invasive species they are here. Still, here in Melbourne, fishing in winter they prove to be quiet a challenge regardless. I love your detailed explanations as to the why and how the rigs works. Looking forward to improving my hook up rate. Thanks heaps’ for the fabulous video.

📳 I now offer one-on-one tuition by video call. If that’s of interest, contact me directly. 🙋‍♂️ Watch next: 100 carp caught, only 2 lost: Here’s HOW I did it 👉 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yPDZV9xY_UA.html I rediscovered the benefits of the humble mono hair rig while tackling a massive local public reservoir. The lake has carp over 60lbs with a lot of nuisance species. As I have no boat, the fishing had to be done from the shore at maximum casting range. The night sectors are always busy so I took on this lake days only! Luckily I had help from a friend that knew the water well and he suggested the mono hair rig. He’d been using this very simple rig for the last 25 years and knowing what he’d caught, I knew I had to understand how something so simple could be so effective. Armed with his expert advice, it didn't take long for the results to come and carp after carp fell to this simple little rig. I soon learnt that it wasn't limited to still waters and I had quite a few river carp on this setup as well (I did fish lead clips on the river due to the snags). This year I decided to really focus on this rig at Beausoleil and see if I could perfect it. The addition of the little hook bead was a revelation. It makes it easier to tie than whipping under the hair. It also stopped the knotless knot from unravelling and becoming loose. I’ve had my best ever start to any season using this simple little rig so I’m super confident that it’s going to work well for anyone that tries it. All you have to do is believe that simple works! Let me know what you think in the comments.

Brilliant results. My pal has caught more English 40'S than anyone I know. People think he's taking the muck when he shows them his rig. A simple mono rig with a long hair that's it.

@matthewcollinsangler 3 года назад

@@darrenfox1879 I know exactly what you mean lol. I’ve only known this guy a few years and gradually the stories came out of where he's fished and what he’s caught. He’s basically caught more big carp from the toughest venues Europe has to offer than some very well known anglers lol. We’re talking 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s you know? When he showed me his rig I thought he was having a laugh. Then I started fishing with him and it was ridiculous. His rig is little more than some Big Game and a sharp hook. He does dump the lead every take though which I’m not a fan of. I will totally admit that I dismissed it completely at first but the more sessions we teamed up on the more I realised he’s got something really special here. It might look simple but it’s bloody effective lol.

@darrenfox1879 3 года назад

Yep it's a fantastic rig matt. You'll know this but a lot of people don't. Even if you cast a supple braid rig perfectly and feel the drop etc. And the rig is dead straight it's surprising how the rig can be put in a bad position or looped just by smaller fish picking it up and dropping the rig, as well as carp moving the rig while feeding near it. The mono rig resets its self and is always fishing. With a quality hard hooking bait I have 100% confidence leaving this rig out 24 hours if necessary.

@matthewcollinsangler 3 года назад

An updated version of Steve Renyards ‘Basic Complicated’ rig whereby you use a hook bead instead of an extra couple of wraps below, and not trapping, the hair. Prefer this as it helps stopping the hair moving from side to side by trapping it. Will definitely try this and like the hiding the boilie stop inside the boilie too. Great video and very informative 👍

@matthewcollinsangler 2 года назад

Hi Alex, it’s great that you are concerned for the carp's welfare. It’s often overlooked. As a fishery owner of 10 years experience, fish welfare is at the very top of my priorities. For me this simple running rig setup is very safe and most importantly very difficult to get wrong and make it dangerous. At the end of the day our sport actually puts the welfare of these precious creatures at risk and we owe it to the carp to do the very best we can to ensure that that risk is minimised. Running rigs are probably not a good choice in weed or in a very snaggy environment but for most venues they are a safe choice. Glad you're finding this channel useful. All the best with your fishing, cheers, Matt.

@matthewcollinsangler Год назад

@@MrBillUp Hi Chris, two choices for weedy venues. Fish above it (zigs) or fish in it. I’ve not done a video on zig fishing but I’m very familiar with the technique. As far as fishing in it, my go-to approach would be solid PVA bags. My latest rig (the blowback multi ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7VlmNHg0BD0.html) is a good choice for solid PVA bag work but you might want to swap to an outline inline lead style. No video on that either yet. It’s on the ever increasing list of videos we need to make lol. Thanks very much for your feedback on our approach, it’s really nice to hear.

@carpnstuff 3 года назад

I find myself agreeing with so much of this, I've been using normal mono for hook links for years; I chuckle at the price of these coated braids etc, and as you say, it's pretty much free if you take it from a bulk spool intended for your mainline, and the anti tangle qualities alone, are such a confidence booster. Also the running lead is a big favourite of mine, also fished with a nice tight clutch and line clip, to pull that hook in before I've even picked up the rod! I will definitely be using the hook bead from now on as I have always been a little unhappy with the exit angle of the hair. I have played around with all sorts to try and get it right but end up manually twisting it every time before I cast out. I have also played with using a supple material for the hair, 6 lb braid, trapped under the knotless knot, as I like the separation it allows, and although this changes the rig completely, it is one I favour, and have done well on it. It is a great feeling to be sitting behind rigs that you have such confidence and faith in. Thanks for the vid, the bead trick is my eureka moment!!! I have some in my box somewhere...off now to have a play with incorporating one into a rig!

@matthewcollinsangler 3 года назад

Hi Dave, wow! Thanks so much for taking such time and trouble to comment in such detail. I’m delighted that you understand and follow my logic, I can tell we’re very much on the same wavelength. I’m particularly happy with the bead idea. It just came to me, one of those blue sky lightbulb moments. As soon I tied one up I thought yep, that’s the one! This whole channel is really about helping anglers develop their confidence. I had to teach myself modern carp angling from scratch and I spent many years fumbling in the dark lol. Working with guests at Beausoleil reminded me of how hard it is to master this sport. I was lucky, I eventually met some guys that helped steer me in the right direction. I’d love to hear how you get on with the rig. Cheers, Matt.

@captpicard6894 3 года назад

Great video as always Matt. Very informative, very instructive, and really helpful. Personally I absolutely, totally, 100% agree with you on lead clip systems. I’ve always been a fan of running lead systems, they just seem safer, simpler, and less likely to tangle than a clip. I’ve always felt lead clip systems, frankly, are just another new way for tackle manufacturers to try to extract money from anglers by constantly having to buy new leads every week.

@matthewcollinsangler 3 года назад

Hi mate, yeah it makes you think lol. On the one hand the big companies have done a massive amount for the sport. We now have access to better gear for less money. The problem is that the choice is bewildering and it’s very complicated to navigate the maze. Best regards, Matt.

You can’t get much simpler than that.

@matthewcollinsangler 2 года назад

Hi Bradley, thanks for commenting. It’s always great to chat to another angler that’s tried to solve problems! I understand very well that you like the idea of giving the carp an initial shock followed by allowing the lead to slide away. I’ve been fishing these “trick” types of systems for many years. That is why I was really surprised how well the humble running rig setup worked. It’s a leap of faith really but one to be tried on an easy water to start to build confidence. I see you’ve discovered my trick shock and run system. This is a swivel based version and it works great. I’ve also created another trick version using some beads. This system is outlined in my mono rig video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hoHB1gi_sQs.html My original trick system was based around inline leads.

@lordamercy5609 3 года назад

i use this rig . i believe the effectiveness lies not so so much in the palm test, but in the separation you get between the hookbait and hookpoint with the long rigid hair forcing the bait away and the hook downwards. its hard for them to deal with and catches hold easily when they try to get rid of it. less is more these days if you are looking for 'edges' 👍

@matthewcollinsangler 3 года назад

Hi mate, thanks very much for taking the time to comment. It’s always great to get feedback from someone that’s already familiar with an old school rig like this. I agree 100% with your comment about how the stiff hair creates a big gap between the bait and the point of the hook. In fact we filmed some video where I tried to explain this exact principle but my delivery wasn't very good so we cut it out. The palm test is far from perfect but it was the best way I could come up with at the time to show the mechanics. As you say the bottom line is that they find it very difficult to deal with and they end up getting nailed either in the scissors or the bottom lip. Love your comment about less is more. In modern carping the trend is to add and add and then add more edges and the end result are rigs that are less effective than these simple rigs that have been around for 30 years. All the very best with your fishing. Cheers, Matt.

@garytissington8659 3 года назад

Hi Matt, thanks for the video, always great to see a simple but effect rig which doesn't cost the earth to make, just have some questions around this please. 1st would you fish with tight lines to make this effective? If so would you recommend back leads? I don't often use back leads and that's why i am a big fan of using your semi fixed lead set up with inline leads and tail rubbers with a very slack line, can I not use this lead set up or is it best to go with how its described in the video? Many thanks , Gary

@matthewcollinsangler 3 года назад

Hi Gary, thanks for your excellent questions! So yes I've been using this with back leads as it helps to maintain load on the line which is important for the mechanics. On larger water I fish tight lines. Nice to hear that you're a fan of my original inline rig. It's still a very good rig but it's not ideally suited to beginners or for fishing at range. You can combine my inline setup with this mono hair rig but only over clean spots. Any silt could cause the hooklink to loop up. For slack lines on softer spots I'd look at the lead system I described in my mono D rig video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hoHB1gi_sQs.html I've developed another trick running lead system that you'll like so hit that bell and you'll see it when we publish it later on.

@@matthewcollinsangler Hi again mat,a question for you,for years I’ve always used the lead clip system one of the reasons is that you can take the lead off when putting your rods in the holdall! So mate how can I take the lead off if I use the running rig system like you do??????? As I this is the main reason I don’t use the running rig system! Hope you can help me cheers Danboy👍

@matthewcollinsangler 3 года назад

@@danielwalker3535 Hi Dan, now that is an excellent question and one I need to cover properly in a quick tips series that we’ve got planned 😉 I believe this is one of the major reasons why the use of leadclips has become so ubiquitous. Basically you have two options, 1 costs money, the other is free but costs time. Here you go: 1) buy a nice padded reel case like the one that aqua products sell for example. They have a neat little Velcro pouch inside where you can slip the lead into so that it doesn't damage your carbon: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UKjUoz1PX9Q.html 2) You need to change the way you setup to go fishing and to return from fishing. Start by threading on your tubing and then run the tubing up the line 50cm. Tie a small overhand knot in the line but leave 25cm of tag end. Then wind the line onto your spool and wrap the tubing onto the spool. The little overhand knot will prevent the tubing from sliding off. Once the tubing is wrapped round the spool, take the tag end and wrap round the spool until you reach the line clip. Wrap the line round the line clip. Transport your rods to the lake like this. At the lake thread the line tubing through the rings, and when you're ready to add your lead, run rig rubber etc. just just off the overhand knot you tied. You can then complete the setup. At the end of the session slide the tubing up, cut the mainline and then repeat the process to take your rods home. Yes it’s slower than just unclipping a lead but it only takes minutes. If those minutes are that important to you then then go with option 1. See what you think, Matt.

@danielwalker3535 3 года назад

@@matthewcollinsangler Hi mat,thanks for the advice I really appreciate it mate,but I’ve been thinking 🤔 I think I’m going to buy some rod straps to put the lead in so it won’t bang about in the holdall👍it just seems the simplest option for me as I’ve got a holdall were the rods are all ready made up!

I’ve seen quick links fail here on our cats but then again they are 100lbs + lol. I fish in different ways for different spots when using running rigs. At close range (up to 20yards) it’s a slackline. Medium range up to 80 yards it’s backleads. 80+ yards it’s generally tight lines. I’ll also vary bobbin weights depending on the distance fished.

Hi Paul, this rig is great for many situations but there are times when I wouldn't use it and I wouldn't make such a key decision until I’d seen the place for myself. If you need to cast a reasonable distance and the bottom is pretty clean and you are getting a nice thud on the drop then yes absolutely use this rig. If the water is gin clear and they are up in the water then you should be on zigs. If the water is very weedy then I’d either go zigs or solid PVA bags with a supple braided rig. If there are big catfish then I’d use braid, not mono and if it was very rocky I’d use a multi rig to facilitate quick hook change. Hope that helps, best of luck and do let me know how you get on. Cheers, Matt.

Great to hear mate 😊 I'm not worried about the palm test on a mono rig tbh, it’s very crude and it doesn't accurately represent how the rig actually moves in the water. And it doesn’t work as well with mono as it does with braid because mono is so stiff. There's no issue using this rig with mono even if it doesn't look great on the palm test, you'll still catch 👍
