bait rig?

[phonebush]

What is the name for a rig that is opposite a boilie on a hair? IE. the hook is below the bait.

Hair rig? Popped up hair rig?

Closest I can think of is maybe the rob Maylin rigs, ie the bouyant hook rig where the hook has a strip of polystyrene glued to it.

 

The other is the looney extension rig, where a hook extension puts the hook above the bait.

Oops sorry, total mis-understanding of your question Phone, clearly a far to straightforward query..totally threw me!!!

 

However in amends, there is a set-up called the claw rig which involves a weighted hook & a pop-up boilie.

 

The hair is tied at the eye & obviously the bait sits directly over the top of the hook.
