No matter if your water receives a lot of pressure or not, the Funnel Web Rig is suburb presentation. By using the funnel web your rig is covered in a very attractive layer of groundbait on the bottom once the P.V.A. has dissolved. Hardly any carp will be able to resist a hookbait presented in that manner. The rig is particularly suited to waters where the fish have seen it all. Due to the fact that your rig is actually covered in groundbait it will be very hard for the carp to detect it.
The set-p is very simple. All you need is some groundbait (not too humid because otherwise the P.V.A. will start dissolving). Personally, I use the Meaty Marine Pellet from Dynamite baits, a boilie funnel web sold by companies like Fox or Korda and the Korda Kompressa.
You can vary the length of your rig depending on the length of funnel web you want to use. To make sure you can quickly recast, tie a loop at the end of the rig so that you can use it in conjunction with a snap link swivel.
All you need: Boilie funnel web, Kompressa and Dynamite groundbait.
Getting started.
Fill some Dynamite groundbait into the plastic tube.
Compress the groundbait with the Kompressa and carefully push it into the pva web.
Pull the funnel web off the tube and make an overhand knot at the end.
Cut off the "package" with a pair of scissors.
With the aid of a long stringer needle thread the funnel web / groundbait onto your rig.
The finished set up. All you have to do now is to clip your rig into the snap link swivel on your rod / lead set up and cast out.
