A bait boat is today one of the most essential tools for carp anglers – it allows you to accurately deliver your rig up to 300–500 meters, even in the middle of the night. The right choice depends on the waterbody, your budget, and what you expect from the equipment. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know before making a purchase.

The Ronnie Rig has taken the carp fishing world by storm over the past few years and has become one of the best rigs for catching big carp on floating baits.

In my opinion, its key feature is its ability to "reset itself." Once cast into the water, this rig will always present itself perfectly. When dealing with a lot of small fish in the venue, some of our rigs can be lifted, moved around, and can end up presenting poorly, which affects hookset efficiency negatively. With the Ronnie Rig, this issue will never occur.

The "Knotless Knot" is a fundamental yet simplest rig in carp fishing. It gained popularity in the early nineties and has forever changed carp fishing around the world.

It could even be said that this rig provided the foundation for one of the most popular methods in fishing today, which is carp angling. Thanks to its simplicity and the complete elimination of the weakest link, the knot, the material upon which it is tied retains practically 100% of its strength.

Through years of carp fishing, it has become almost essential for me to fish in snaggy areas where usually the branches of submerged trees are covered with raciznic algae. Though the saying "where there are sticks, there are results" may be considered a cliché, for me, it often becomes a necessary condition when choosing a spot to lay my rig.

I simply can't fish any other way/don't want to. To "carp" safely in snag-ridden places, I must have confidence in the rig I'm using. In such situations, I only use the Kevlar Slip D-Rig.
