Gardner Ronnie Rigs Barbless Range

Gardner Ronnie Rig

Since Gardner Tackle started producing videos and 
writing about the Ronnie Rig it has established itself as an amazingly effective 
low pop up arrangement. Its a sensationally effective pop up presentation that 
will rightfully stand the test of time, like other classics such as the Hinged 
Stiff Rig, Chod Rig, Magaligner, Blow Back, etc.

Each pack of ready made 
Ronnie Rigs includes three perfectly constructed hook sections that have been 
constructed to exacting standards here in the UK and their launch now makes this 
rig available to everyone!

These Ronnie Rigs use our exquisitely sharp 
size 4 and size 6 Covert Dark Mugga hooks attached to the new dedicated XT 
Flexi-Ring Kwik Lok Swivel. Essentially, the combination of the Mugga hooks 
in-turned eye, swept shank and amazing razor sharp point is particularly 
effective in getting the most out of these rigs, as it creates a fast and 
aggressive reacting hooking mechanism that takes a firm hook hold. Each end 
section features a mat finished sliding Covert Hook Swivel, held in position 
with a Covert Hook Stop.

This phenomenal rig has been tried, tested and 
proven time and time again on big carp waters across the UK and Europe with 
truly devastating results!

To get started, all you need to do is tie your 
favoured hooklink material onto the Flexi-Ring, tailoring the hooklink length 
and material to the nature of the lake bed youre fishing over and the lead 
arrangement that you are using. As a rough guide we recommend monofilaments like 
our hugely successful Trick-Link and Invisi-Link for Helicopter rigs, and softer 
hooklinks like the awesome Ultra Skin on Covert Lead Clip (or similar) 
arrangements.

Finally, all you need to do is tie on a pop up that is 
buoyant enough to hold the rig section up. You should add a small amount of 
Critical Mass (Tungsten Putty) moulded around the shrink tubing, that holds the 
XT Swivel in place, so the rig sinks slowly to the lake bed. If the hookbait is 
not buoyant enough the hook will not be able to rotate freely and this will 
detract from the rigs ultimate performance.

We generally prefer to use 
and recommend a small pop up. The easiest way to attach readymade pop ups is to 
thread a section of main line or dental floss onto the hook swivel and pull the 
two tags through the bait. Pull the dental floss through the bait whislt pushing 
the pop up onto the Covert Hook Swivel eye (which helps keep it in place). 
Finally, tie a number of granny knots flush to the outside of the hook bait, 
trim the floss to 1cm and blob the tag ends to secure the hook bait firmly in 
place.

*If you find that the Covert Hook Stop 
starts to move on the shank of the hook it may need replacing. We recommend 
feathering the cast to reduce the impact on the waters surface, lowering the 
chances of this happening.
