So this is a post of shame for these two rigs, one using a lead clip and pva bags and the other using a method feeder, which netted me 0 carp my last outing. However, I know the issue isn’t my spot, as a cheap Chinese rig with a bait cage and several normally hooked corn caught a nice one. I used a pop up and a fake corn piece for these two. In fact, I have never had any success with a hair rig, and have only caught with normally hooked corn. Is there a problem with these hair rigs? Should I add stacked corn to them? Or is the issue the weights? My sinker is around 40 grams and my method feeder is 40ish too. Happy for any inputs as to why these rigs failed.

Is that coated braid and super stiff? If so you should scrape off the coating right when the line leave the kicker so they popup is free to float around without picking up your leader.
