Flurocarbon stiff rigs are nigh-on invisible and awkward for fish to eject, but they don't always present baits in a natural way. Enter the combi rig, which couples a stiff backbone with flexibility at the sharp end to give you the best of both worlds. Great for bottom baits and 'critically balanced' presentations that use a semi-buoyant bait to offset the weight of the hook.
