I have just tied a few carp rigs for the first time.
There is a big problem with tying hair rigs on all but the largest hooks,
you can't thread the leader through the hook eye twice, there isn't
enough room through the eye.
Can anyone offer guidance please?
Tony
Size of the eye varies a bit but Ime with say 12/15lb you are alright with
a knotless knot down to a hook size of 10 .... probably lower if you have
better manual dexterity lol.
