Madcat Adjusta Basic Rig 20g 1/0 + 6/0 River Rig

Madcat Adjusta Basic River Rig — Ready-Tied Bottom Rig for Fast-Flowing Catfish Rivers

The Madcat Adjusta Basic River Rig Live Bait is a no-nonsense, pre-tied catfish rig built for presenting live bait hard on the bottom of powerful, fast-running rivers. Grab it, clip it on, and fish.

Built for Current — The Adjusta Subfloat Does the Work

At the heart of this rig sits a MADCAT Adjusta Subfloat that lifts the hooks just off the riverbed, keeping your bait natural and active even in strong currents. This prevents the rig from burying into silt or weed, so your live bait stays in the strike zone where big catfish are hunting.

Matched Tackle for 15–17 cm Live Bait

The 20 g weight and the front 1/0 combined with back 6/0 hook pairing are dialled in for medium live baits of 15–17 cm — think a small carp or similarly sized fish. The rig is tied entirely on 1.00 mm MADCAT Ultra-soft Mono Leader with a breaking strength of 45 kg (100 lb), giving you the suppleness to keep bait lively and the backbone to stop powerful fish.

Choose the Right Variant

The Adjusta Basic River Rig Live Bait is available in three sizes to match your live bait and target conditions. Select the weight and hook combination that suits the size of bait you intend to use:

• ADJ. BASICRR LB 160CM 1.00MM 1/0 6/0 20G — 20 g, front 1/0 + back 6/0; for 15–17 cm live bait in moderate to strong current; ideal starting size for most river catfish sessions

• ADJ. BASICRR LB 160CM 1.00MM 2/0 8/0 40G — 40 g, front 2/0 + back 8/0; for larger live baits and heavier flows where extra weight is needed to hold bottom

• ADJ. BASICRR LB 160CM 1.00MM 3/0 10/0 60G — 60 g, front 3/0 + back 10/0; for the biggest live baits and the strongest currents or deeper swims
