Madcat Screaming Profi River Rig Dead Bait 60g 180cm 45kg 3/0 + 10/0

Madcat Screaming Profi River Rig Dead Bait — Ready-Tied Bottom Rig for Fast Currents

The Madcat Screaming Profi River Rig Dead Bait is a purpose-built, pre-tied catfish rig designed for bottom fishing with dead bait in powerful, fast-flowing rivers. Grab it, clip on a dead fish, and fish with confidence.

Built for Fast Water with a Screaming Subfloat

At the heart of this rig is the Madcat Screaming Subfloat, which lifts the bait slightly off the bottom and produces a subtle rattle to attract catfish even in heavy current. The subfloat keeps your dead bait presented naturally in the flow without it dragging flat along the riverbed.

Tough, Reliable Construction Throughout

The rig is tied on 1.00 mm Madcat Ultra-soft Mono Leader line with a breaking strength of 45 kg (100 lb), giving you the backbone to handle large wels catfish while remaining supple enough for a natural bait presentation. The 60 g weight anchors the rig firmly on the bottom in strong currents. A front 3/0 hook and rear 10/0 hook provide a secure, two-point hold on dead baits up to approximately 25 cm — ideal for trout and similar-sized baitfish.

Choose the Right Variant

All three variants share the same 180 cm total rig length and 45 kg line strength on 1.00 mm Ultra-soft Mono Leader. Pick the size that matches your dead bait:

• Screaming Profi River Rig Dead Bait — 1/0 + 6/0 hooks / 20 g — lightest option, suited to the smallest dead baits around 25 cm in moderate flow

• Screaming Profi River Rig Dead Bait — 2/0 + 8/0 hooks / 40 g — mid-range weight for medium dead baits around 28.5 cm and moderate to strong currents

• Screaming Profi River Rig Dead Bait — 3/0 + 10/0 hooks / 60 g — heaviest anchor weight, front 3/0 and rear 10/0 hooks, optimised for dead baits around 25 cm in the fastest, most powerful river sections
