In our first “Tie your own series feature” BNKD member @jamie_george93 takes on the popular and often go to option – The Chod Rig.

Components needed to tie this rig:

• Chod style hook,
• Chod filament,
• Rig ring,
• Size 11 ring swivel,
• Putty,
• Puller tools,
• Scissors,
• Bait floss,
• a lighter,
• Super buoyant pop ups.

Step 1: cut yourself off around 6-8inches of chod filament. Secure the hook with a knotless knot leaving about an inch of tag end to create the d section, Slide on a rig ring on the tag end.

Step 2: pass the tag end back through the eye of the hook.

Step 3: carefully blob the tag end with a lighter to secure d section in place

Step 4: attach your ring swivel using a 2 turn blood knot moisten and tighten down slowly.

Step 5: trim tag and blob for added security.

Step 6: run the chod filament through your finger and thumb the warm the material and create a slight curve in the rig.

Step 7: floss on a super buoyant pop up and apply just enough putty so the rig sinks super slowly and your good to go.
