How To Tie a Maggot Solid Bag Rig

• Cut a length of Blend Tungsten Tubing and slide it onto your Mainline.
• Follow that up with a Vitabitz Tail Rubber and a Flat Inline Pear Lead.
• Tie on a Size 8 Vitabitz Ring Swivel with a Palomar Knot and pull it inside the Lead.
• Strip off some 25lb Ammo Braid and thread through the eye of the Lock Hook.
• Begin whipping a Knotless Knot with a tag end instead of a hair loop.
• Trim the tag end, then thread a Dazzlers Magoliner Aligner down over the Hook eye.
• Next, thread on a Dog Bone Sinker and position close to the Hook.
• Tie a Twisted Figure-of-Eight Loop Knot in the other end of your Hooklink. 
• Thread a Tweakers Eyed Bait Screw onto the Hook, followed by a Dazzlers Long Distance Hookbead. 
• Loop-to-loop the Hooklink on to the Lead System by passing the loop through the Swivel and the Hook back through the loop.
• Thread some Get Flossed through the eye of the Bait Screw and thread on a Pop-up Hookbait. 
• Next, thread some Maggots onto your Cool Tool Fine Needle, pull them down tight to the Pop-up and tie off.
• Now grab some Fade PVA Tape and thread two old Pop-up Boilies onto it before tying it to your Hook.
• Place this in your Fade Solid Bag and start loading with a base of Groundbait, topped with Maggots.
• Tie off or lick and stick the top of the bag and fold in the corners. Be careful not to pop any Maggots!
• You now have a devastating Maggot PVA Bag!
