Re: help with silt/chod rig

As I understand it, it's essentially a helicopter rig with the beads retaining the hooklink set between 12 and 18" up from the lead. Normally fished with a balanced pop-up to allow the bait to settle gently whilst the long distance to the lead allows it to sink without affecting bait presentation.

Incidently, since observing carp avidly feeding deep in silt that only had 2" of water above it, I've become somewhat less worried about bait sinking in providing I am confident it is in a feeding spot.
