Full details

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does the kit come with everything needed?

Yes, the kit includes the marker, rubber beads, and necessary line stops.

Can I use this for night fishing?

Yes, the marker includes a reflective section specifically for night visibility.

Will the beads interfere with my reel?

The beads are designed to be small enough to pass through most standard rod guides.

How many beads do I need to use?

You should use two beads: one to limit the depth of the rig and one to create a stop for the surface marker.

What happens if I lose the beads?

You can replace them with standard rubber float stops that are compatible with your mainline diameter.

Troubleshooting

Marker sinking or not staying upright

Check that the line is not tangled around the float and ensure you are not using too much tension on the mainline.

Line clip not releasing during a take

Ensure the clip is properly seated on the line and that no debris is lodged inside the mechanism.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents line damage from lake bed snags
  • Highly visible in both day and night conditions
  • Easy-to-use elasticated clip mechanism
  • Slide-free design ensures trouble-free fish landing

Cons

  • Requires manual adjustment of beads before casting
  • Not suitable for shallow water where the float might disturb fish
  • Setup process takes time to calibrate correctly

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your kit, follow these steps:

  1. Thread two of the supplied rubber beads onto your main line.
  2. Position the first bead a few feet above your rig.
  3. Position the second bead a few feet above the water depth to allow for surface float movement.
  4. Once the rig is dropped, attach the Bottle Marker clip to the line located between your two beads.

For care, rinse the unit with fresh water after each trip to remove silt or lake debris. Inspect the elasticated clip periodically for signs of fatigue to ensure it maintains a firm grip on the line.
