Finally, a rotary rig setup that can be used in dense weed safely and also allow fish to be landed easier in such conditions! Coming from a brainwave of James Harrison (former editor of Advanced Carp Fishing magazine), the Choppa Droppa allows the lead to be ejected off the end of leadcore leaders should it get snagged up when used in a rotary style setup.
The leaders themselves are constructed in the normal way for the hooklink arrangement, but it is the lead arrangement that is the clever part. I will be going through a step-by-step procedure of how to use this arrangement in a very near future update to the review of the product. The way Atomic have worked their version of the Choppa Droppa allows the lead to only be ejected under pressure, rather than just for the sake of losing a lead (like some other manufacturers products just to enable them to sell more leads!). I know that I will be using the also available Choppa Droppa kits from Atomic in my own angling in the future in conditions that dictate that the lead require to be ejected. With the Ready Rigz, the complete rig is constructed already for the anglers that prefer to buy the items ready made. Available in 3 lengths of leader material; 30", 40" & 50", there is a leader available for all anglers. It is good to see that a company is thinking of rig safety rather than profits first & forth most.
