My step by step guide to my take on the German Rig. Which is a great addition to any carp anglers armour.
All the components you will ever need.
Step 1
Spotted Fin Turning Point curved shank Hooks, the perfect pattern and the correct one for this rig and the Ronnie Rig.
Step 2
Take a small length of stiff shrink tubing with is a important factor for this rig, not to be overlooked.
Step 3
Using a kwik change clip, put through the eye of the hook and Slide the shrink tubing down and over the swivel.
Step 4
Heat carefully over a kettle
Step 5
Take two hook beads and a tiny swivel and thread them on bead, swivel, bead.
Step 6
Get a length of floss and thread through the tiny swivel.
Step 7
Put a Wafters on a baiting needle and attach to the floss.
And pull down a gently pushing the tiny swivel into the bait.
Step 8
Trim the floss and blob down with a lighter.
Step 9
Get a length of FinSkin semi stiff coated hook link and tie onto the ring swivel.
Step 10
Tie a loop in the other end
Step 11
Thread a bit of tubing over the top to protect the knot and eliminate tangles.
And the result of the perfect tackle, bait combination
Hope this helps

About richardhandel
I would like to give a brief snap shot of my life and introduce myself;
My name is Richard Handel and was born in 1965 in Suffolk. I have worked as a UK Operation & Intermodule Manager for a shipping company. I live in Hampshire now and am married with 2 young children, both girls so I am a bit outnumbered even the cat is a girl!
I have been fishing since I was about 7 years old. I started on small local rivers in Suffolk, then moved onto gravel pits and then carp fishing. My personal best is a 39.08 mirror, over recent years I have started river fishing again, on the Hampshire Avon, this is a nice break from the carp lakes.
My life has turned a big corner this year, the company I was working for relocated their Operation centre to Estonia. I was offered a job at the head office in London. This would have meant a 5 day commute and working in Stratford. As a family, we did not fancy this, as I would hardly spend any time with the children (and the Mrs). So after 22.5 years, I was given a nice redundancy package and with my wife is working full time. I became the house husband.
This has meant a complete turn around in my fishing, as I can pick and choose when I go. I have found a splendid new syndicate to fish this year, which includes 5 lakes and some 8 miles of river with only 150 members. It's an amazing change to the way I am able to fish.
I am now trying to start my own tackle business and make a bit of a name for myself in the world of fishing, as I have retired from real work.
