WELCOME... to Volume 4 of our free Edges Rig Guide. The aim of this year’s off ering is to give you a host of step-by-step sequences to follow to enable you to be able to master tying some of the most popular and most eff ective carp fi shing rigs around. In addition we also wanted to help you with the lead presentations too so we’ve included ‘how to’ sequences for setting up four of the most commonly used lead arrangements as well! We have separated the guide into 5 sections each of which is colour-coded to make it nice and simple for you to navigate. So over the coming pages you will nd Pop-Up Rigs, Zig & Floater Rigs, Bottom Bait Rigs, Lead Setups and then the nal section at the back, which is a guide to the whole Edges range of accessories. We really hope you nd the tips and tactics useful and would love to hear from you via our social media platforms.
