I’ve tinkered with a few different styles, but mainly use a size 6 hand sharpened mugga or a thinking anglers curve point

What hooks do you use with it mate ?

Second this. I have been using this pretty much exclusively for the last few years and to great effect. Wafters and pop ups the main two but I wouldn’t hesitate to use a bottom bait.

Exactly my findings, great stuff 👍

I’m really liking the Korda Hybrid Stiff. So easy to make multi-combi type rigs, without needing to tie an Albright knot. Beauty of Hybrid is that you can crimp it, so very easy to work with and keep rig lengths consistent etc. I’ve found the 0.6mm crimps to be the ones fyi. Once the rig is constructed, steam straight over the kettle, jobs a good’un!

any specific materials you find works best? finding the ESP stuff isn't stripping so well lately....

There are, but surely you'd want to use the best rig for a particular bait rather than one that will just do?
I would imagine that's how most would think, a alternative might not be such a bad idea.

Or just a simple KD rig for wafters, pop-ups and bottom baits.

Multi-combi comes close perhaps. . .tied with stiff coated braid for less faff. Minimal metalwork compared to Ronnie . . .on the rare occasion I use a genuine pop up presentation I've been favouring the Withy - primarily because no one else probably is . .

Mike Holly's rig does it all and very easy to change hooks. Check it out on YouTube.

I use Ronnie rigs for wafters and pop-ups. When using pop-ups, i slide a Nash Tungsten swivel bead down the hooklength.

Yes you’re probably right mate. Just thought I’d ask other peoples opinions. I like the look of the multi combi rig. I think I’m going to give that a go for balanced baits and small pop ups.

Knotless knot = a simple, time proven, classic fish catcher

Standard hair rig made with coated braid stripped back and a small bit of shrink tube or a kicker surely?
I've been using it with criticals recently and would work just as well with a shot and pop up or bottom bait on the deck.
We used to extend the hair with tooth floss if we wanted to double up the hookbait too
And easy to fish with or without a PVA bag/stringer

Would think that’s why it’s called the multi rig because it covers loads of different scenarios

I think the closest you could get is the multi rig. I don't agree with it btw, but in theory this could work.

I'm stuck in my ways, for me it'd be a standard stiff coated braid hooklink which can be broken to make a hinge rig if required with whatever method of bait attachment, hair, ring, screw, cage etc.

Anybody think there is a rig that does everything well with any bait used ? Being a pop up, bottom bait or wafter ? I use chods a lot for the style of fishing I do or a flipper type rig in the edge, but would love to just have another rig that would be suitable for anything else being small pop ups, big bottom baits or Wafters/snowmans. Is there such a thing you think ?
