CARE FOR THE FISH IN GRAVIERS
The carp care rules are strict at Graviers, so make sure you abide by them.
1 One angler must remain in the water with the fish at all times, while the other angler prepares the weighing and photographic equipment.
2 Dip the fish’s head below the water by pushing down on its flank (not gill plate) to give the fish some recovery time.

3 Spray the hookhold and any other marks or wounds with the antiseptic spray provided.
5 After taking a few snaps of the fish over the mat, it can be removed if the angler is confident the fish will behave.

The head honcho at Solar has always done well using his Kebab Rig abroad; you only have to look at the past world record he held, as well as the fact that he catches 50s for fun, so we had to get the inside information on his rig of choice from the man himself.
espite the name, this carefully engineered setup does not involve heading
down to the local Turkish fast-food establishment, however tempting that may be. There’s no chilli sauce, pitta bread, or strips of greasy, grey matter simply labelled ‘meat’. No, the Kebab Rig is, in fact, Solar Tackle boss Martin Locke’s favourite presentation. Having landed his 100th 50lb carp in October 2012, and as a former world carp record holder in 2010, with a colossal 94lb mirror, the results are difficult to ignore. As any angler knows, there’s far more to successful carp angling than the rig you use, but with Lockey’s incredible success, and his confidence in this rig, Crafty Carper thought it was time to find out why its creator thinks it’s so successful. We’ll let Martin take over from here.
The Thinking Behind It
The whole idea is to make a mouthful that’s easy for a carp to pick up, but one that becomes incredibly difficult for it to eject once inside its mouth. You’ll notice that the Kebab Rig uses a selection of baits on the Hair
RIGHT The world record, at 94lb, in January 2010, was just one of many fish to fall foul to Lockey’s Kebab Rig.

All You Need To Know... Martin Locke
TIE MARTIN LOCKE’S KEBAB RIG
It’s not fiddly to tie, uses just four components, and has been used to land a world record carp – need any more reasons to give it a try?
1 First of all, tie a loop in your chosen hooklink, ready to create the Multi-Rig.
5 Thread it through the swivel and tie it to make a large loop.
2
3
Thread it through the eye of the hook and then through the ring swivel, like so.
6
Now take the loop over the hookpoint like this, and pull it tight.
7
Time to start attaching your chosen hookbaits now – biggest always last.
Leave a 4-5mm gap between each one and secure in place with a Hair stop.
4 Take some Samson Hair braid and cut the length required for your Kebab.
