FAQs
What is the main benefit of the adjustable line clip?
The adjustable line clip allows you to fine-tune the tension on your line, providing precise bite detection and preventing false alarms while remaining gentle on your fishing line.
Can I use the Mamba Hanger in strong currents?
Yes, the two removable 10g weights allow you to increase the hanger's weight, making it more stable and effective in undertow or strong current conditions.
What size isotopes does this hanger take?
The Mamba Hanger is designed to accommodate 15mm size isotopes for illuminated night fishing.
How do I adjust the sensitivity?
Sensitivity is adjusted by adding or removing the two 10g weights and by setting the tension on the adjustable ball line clip.
What type of lines is the clip compatible with?
The line-friendly clip is designed to work with all types of fishing lines, including monofilament and braid, in various weather conditions.
What does 'Hi-Viz' mean?
'Hi-Viz' stands for High Visibility. The bright purple colour makes the hanger easy to see, especially in low light conditions.
Is this hanger sold with alarms?
No, this product is the Mamba Hanger itself. It is an ideal match for Westlake Mamba Alarms, but sold separately.
Troubleshooting
Line clip not releasing smoothly
Check for debris in the clip mechanism. Gently clean and re-adjust the clip tension. Ensure the line is not snagged on any part of the clip.
Hanger feels too light/heavy
Add or remove the 10g weights to adjust the overall weight and sensitivity to your preference and fishing conditions.
Isotopes do not fit
Ensure you are using 15mm size isotopes, as this is the specified size for the slots.
Poor visibility at night
Confirm isotopes are correctly inserted and functioning. Ensure the Hi-Viz body is clean.
