AD Quickbite - How To Tie Terry Hearn's Caster Rig
In this AD Quickbite we focus on one of the better winter baits, casters! If it's good enough for Terry Hearn, it's good enough for us – This Caster Rig has fooled the wariest of carp over the years, and it's just as effective today.
Here is the Terry Hearne caster rig step by step.
Step 1
You will need the following items of tackle.
Step 2
Cut off your desired length of hooklink material and strip back a short section of the outer coating.
Step 3
Attach your hook using the knotless knot and cover with a small length of shrink tube.
Step 4
Thread a rig sleeve onto the hooklink then tie a small figure of eight loop.
Step 5
Thread a ring swivel onto the hook followed by a hook bead.
Step 6
Steam the rig to shrink the tubing and straighten the hooklink.
Step 7
Secure a small disk of foam to the ring swivel using bait floss.
Step 8
Glue a small cluster of fake casters to the foam disk.
Step 9
Mould a small piece of putty to the middle of the hooklink. The rig is best fished over a scattering of real casters.
