How to tie a Blowback Pop-Up Rig step-by-step

Follow these simple steps to learn how to tie a Blowback Pop-Up Rig

1. Start off by stripping off 12-15cm of your favourite skinned hooklink.

2. Tie a small loop in the end to retain the hair stop when the rig is finished.

3. Attach a rig ring.

4. Here's the trickiest bit - thread the rig ring on the hook and secure with a Knotless Knot.

5. Thread an 8mm section of 0.5mm tube down the hooklink.

6. Push the tubing up over the eye of the hook so 2 or 3 mm are below the hooks eye...

7. Your hook should hopefully now look a little like this!

8. Create a hinge at the height you ant to fish the pop up by stripping a small section of hooklink.

9. Mould some Critical Mass for the pop up counterweight on the hooklink just above the stripped section as shown.

10. The finished rig.
