Product Information

The Firstrike™ indicator is constructed from high strength, weather resistant materials to ensure that its operation is consistently reliable throughout extreme temperature ranges and weather conditions.
..
Anglers no longer need to hover intently over their poles waiting to see their bobber being pulled down or their rod tip twitching. The Firstrike™ indicator gives anglers the freedom to watch their poles from greater distances without sacrificing the ability to clearly see when a fish strike has occurred, not only providing a more social and enjoyable fishing experience, but also increasing your odds of success.

ADVANTAGES

• Allows fisherman to use their conventional rod/reel tackle at a much greater
..distance while retaining the ability to clearly see when a fish strike has occurred.
..
• Very easy to use with no removable parts.

• When unit is triggered, fishing line becomes completely free of the device.

• Consistently works great, even in extreme wind and very cold conditions.
..
• Unit is very portable and easily adapts to a wide variety of fishing rod sizes.
..
• Triggering sensitivity can be easily controlled.
..
• Flag can be locked down into a “storage” position and the entire Firstrike™
..indicator can remain conveniently attached to the fishing rod when not in use.
..
• The device attaches to a fishing rod at a distance from the rod’s handle eliminating
..any possible interference the device could cause with the reel or fisherman.
..
• Durable, simple design virtually eliminates worn or broken parts.
..
• Immediate notification of the initial strike reduces the possibility of deep hooks
..which can be harmful or fatal to fish.

TIPS

• Between uses, remove the Firstrike™ indicator from the pole and place in its
..protective tube to prevent accidental damage.
..
• Stiffer medium action fishing rods are more effective with the Firstrike™ indicator
..than very flexible, ultra-light rods.
..
• For best results, set the trigger sensitivity to the most sensitive setting allowable
..while avoiding accidental flag trips from current or bait.
..
• Upon removing the Firstrike™ indicator from your fishing rod, the foam in the
..underside channel of the indicator may appear collapsed from being pressed
..against the rod. This condition is normal. The foam will return to its original
..state within a few days…

• Trigger mechanism comes pre-lubed with silicon grease to eliminate freeze ups.
..If needed, the user can apply more by completely removing the sensitivity
..control knob and lightly applying a small amount of silicon grease to the base
..and threads of the stud.
