FAQs
What is the main benefit of the Drop Arm Indicator?
The main benefit is its highly visual design combined with minimal resistance, allowing for accurate detection of both aggressive runs and subtle dropbacks without alerting the fish.
Can I adjust the sensitivity of this indicator?
No, the Drop Arm Indicator does not have an adjustable weight system. Its sensitivity is determined by the free running of the mainline through the ball clip.
How many clips are included with the indicator?
The indicator is supplied with 4 interchangeable clips for a secure fit on various banksticks.
Is this indicator suitable for all types of fishing?
It is primarily designed for predator fishing where visual indication and low resistance are important. It can be used with various bait types and techniques.
Can I use this with a bite alarm?
Yes, it is designed to be used in combination with a bite alarm for enhanced bite detection.
How do I attach it to my bankstick?
It features a rear clip that is designed to fit most standard banksticks. Simply slide the clip onto the bankstick.
What does 'dropback' indication mean?
Dropback indication refers to the indicator moving back towards the angler, signaling that a fish has taken the bait and is moving towards the rod.
Troubleshooting
Indicator not releasing mainline smoothly
Ensure the mainline is correctly seated in the ball clip and that the clip itself is clean and free from debris. Check for any damage to the clip.
Visual indication is difficult to see
Ensure the bright orange body is clean. In very low light conditions, consider using a headlamp or a luminous isotope on the indicator.
Indicator feels loose on the bankstick
Try one of the alternative interchangeable clips provided, or ensure the bankstick is firmly planted and the indicator's clip is fully engaged.
