Super buoyant, close cell foam – ideal for balancing baits and rigs. Excellent when cut down and fished on a Zig Rig or other floater methods. The super buoyancy means Zig Rig hook baits can be kept smaller; a proven technique for catching out Carp that have been fished for with conventional baits on Zig Rigs in the past.
- Will absorb flavours for a steady leak rate.
- 12 x 28mm pieces per packet.
- Now available in 10 different colours and schemes: Red, Yellow, Black, White, Mixed, Pink, Orange, Brown, Pellet Brown and Mixed Plus.
Top Tip – Zig Rig hook baits should be mounted on a very short hair, keeping the hook in tight to the Zig Rig Foam to get the best hook holds possible. We recommend Size 12 Mugga Hooks.

‘Zig Rig’ step by step guide:
- what you’ll need
- 1. Start off by tying a 3mm loop and tying a size 12 Mugga hook on with a 6 turn whipping knot. Its important you keep the overall hair about 5mm.
- 2. Cut off a small section of Zig Rig Foam. About 1 cm is ample as its so buoyant.
- 3. Cut a slice through the foam so that it is split from the centre and finishes just short of the end as shown.
- 4. Push a baiting needle though the outside of the foam so it comes through at an angle down into the slice you have made
- 5. Now pull the foam onto the hair. Its just right if the hook is pulled into the foam before the loop is out the other side.
- 6. Use a colour matched hair or dumbbell stop to hold the foam in place.
- 7. The hookbait should look like this, with the hook partially hidden by the foam.
- 8. Trim off the edges – It makes the hookbait look less ‘man made’.
- 9. With the hair at this angle the hook is more likely.
