Handmade Snowman Rig – Effective Two-Boilie Presentation

These Snowman Rigs are handmade and tied to order using my favourite high-quality components. Essentially, the snowman rig is a two-boilie setup: a standard boilie at the bottom with a smaller pop-up on top. Consequently, the presentation stands out just above the lakebed, resembling a snowman, which gives this rig its distinctive name.

Furthermore, this rig excels when fishing over beds of standard carp baits. By combining savoury boilies with brightly coloured, highly attractive pop-ups, it creates a presentation that is both natural and enticing to carp. For example, I often pair this rig with Sticky Baits Krill 16mm. The slightly larger bait provides an even more tempting target for wary carp.

Premium Materials for Optimal Performance

Cally’s Carpy Customs Hooks
To begin with, these hooks are made from high-carbon steel, offering superior strength compared to many others on the market. In addition, each hook is double PTFE (Teflon) coated, giving it a silky-smooth finish for faster hook penetration and improved efficiency. Hooks are available in sizes 4, 6, and 8, with both Barbless and Micro Barbed options to suit your fishing style.

Korda N-Trap Soft (20lb)
Next, the hooklink is made from Korda N-Trap Soft 20lb, which is highly flexible and stealthy. Because it reflects no light, it blends perfectly with the lakebed, providing a natural and low-visibility presentation. Furthermore, its soft nature allows it to lay naturally over contours, ensuring consistent and effective rig performance. Available colours include Gravel Brown, Weedy Green, and Silt, so you can match the rig to the lakebed conditions.

Shrink Tubing
Finally, shrink tubing is applied to create a tidy and professional presentation. Moreover, it can be used to form aggressive hook angles, which enhances hooking potential. The tubing comes in brown, green, and black, allowing you to match the rig colour to your hooklink for optimal camouflage.
