Peter Thliveros: Carolina Rig Masterclass and The Petey Rig

The Carolina rig gets bit when nothing else will, but most anglers aren’t getting everything they can out of it. Peter Thliveros built a career with the technique and breaks down the details that separate simply dragging a C-rig from actually understanding what the rig is telling you.Peter also explains the Petey Rig, the finesse version he developed that breaks many of the rules of a traditional Carolina rig—and when he’d rather throw it.What you’ll learn:• Why Peter believes most anglers fish a Carolina rig too light and too fast• How much weight he uses and why heavier sinkers improve bottom contact• How he reads rock, shell, gravel, grass, and transitions through the rig• How Peter drags, pauses, snaps, and changes retrieve speed based on the fish• Leader length, line, hooks, and bait selection for a traditional Carolina rig• Why switching to a Fluke became one of the biggest changes in his C-rig fishing• How the Petey Rig differs from the standard Carolina rig and when it shines• How Peter uses both rigs to find productive water and generate bites when fishing gets toughGuest: Peter Thliveros, 8 time national tour winner, retired professional angler, longtime Carolina-rig specialist, and creator of the Petey Rig.Watch the full video podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLJHIrTVplvfzK7I8FEog0BXmrt83Yc3T Save 10% on MillerTech lithium batteries and all other products: https://tinyurl.com/MillerTech10off Follow Catch More Bass—new episodes every Monday at 2 PM CT.Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/catch-more-bass/id1842586566Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2QGQyLEtWoErDF6vD7igy3
