A unique hooklink developed specifically for Zig rig and floater fishing.
The unique copolymer formula used in the manufacture of Zig Link gives uncompromising performance in knot strength and shock resistance and was developed to give a reduced glare finish. This helps to ensure the carp are less aware of Zig Link’s presence rising up through the water column – especially in bright, warm conditions.
- Ultra low memory and supple feel helps Zig baits and floaters behave more naturally.
- Excellent breaking strains for line diameters –successful floater fishing requires finesse in presentation to attain consistent results.
- Level winding eliminates flat spots and ensures that Zig Link arrives to you in pristine condition for optimum performance.
- Available on 100m Spools in 8lb, 10lb and 12lb.
- Colour: Ultra Clear.
| Breaking Strain | Diameter | Meterage |
| 8lb (3.6kg) | 0.25mm | 100m |
| 10lb (4.5kg) | 0.28mm | 100m |
| 12lb (5.4kg) | 0.30mm | 100m |
‘Zig Rig’ step by step guide:
- What you need…
- 1. Start off by tying a 3mm loop and tying a size 12 Mugga hook on with a 6 turn whipping knot. It’s important you keep the overall hair about 5mm.
- 2. Cut off a small section of Zig Rig Foam. About 1cm is ample as its so buoyant.
- 3. Cut a slice through the foam so that it is split from the centre and finishes just short of the end as shown.
- 4. Push a baiting needle though the outside of the foam so it comes through at an angle down into the slice you have made.
- 5. Now pull the foam onto the hair. Its just right if the hook is pulled into the foam before the loop is out the other side.
- 6. Use a colour matched hair or dumbell stop to hold the foam in place.
- 7. The hook bait should look like this, with the hook partially hidden by the foam.
- 8. Trim off the edges – It makes the hookbait look less ‘man made’.
- 9. With the hair at this angle the hook is more likely to take hold.
