Madcat Adjusta Basic Rig 60g 3/0 + 10/0 Live Bait Rig

Madcat Adjusta Basic Rig — Ready-Tied Live Bait Rig for Fast-Running Rivers

The Madcat Adjusta Basic River Rig (Live Bait Rig) gives catfish anglers a clean, dependable setup for bottom fishing with mid-sized live bait in strong currents — no tying, no guesswork.

Built Around the Adjusta Subfloat

A MADCAT Adjusta Subfloat is integrated into the rig to keep your live bait presented correctly just off the riverbed, even when the current is pushing hard. This passive depth control lets you focus on positioning rather than constantly managing your bait's depth.

Heavy-Duty Line and Hardware

The entire rig is tied on 1.00 mm MADCAT Ultra-soft Mono Leader line with a breaking strength of 45 kg (100 lb), pairing a size 3/0 front hook with a size 10/0 rear hook. The 60 g weight is designed to anchor a 15–17 cm live bait — such as a small carp — firmly on the bottom in fast water. Total rig length is 160 cm.

Choose the Right Variant

All three rigs in the Adjusta Basic River Rig Live Bait range share the same 160 cm length and 1.00 mm mono leader, differing in hook size and weight to match your bait size and flow conditions.

• Size S — 1/0 + 6/0, 20 g: Lighter current and smaller live baits

• Size M — 2/0 + 8/0, 40 g: Mid-sized baits in moderate flow

• Size L — 3/0 + 10/0, 60 g: Larger live baits (15–17 cm, e.g. small carp) in fast-running rivers — this variant
