Snag Ears for safe carp fishing
During static carp fishing, hard runs can cause your rod to be pulled out of the support. Especially when the fish swims away at an angle or your line is perpendicular to the rod tip. Snag Ears are then indispensable. They prevent your rod from flying into the water without compromising speed when striking.
What are Snag Ears?
Snag Ears are two vertical rods that you attach to the front of your setup, usually under your bite alarm. They stand on both sides of your rod and keep it firmly in place during a hard bite. Because you lift the rod straight up when striking, the Snag Ears never get in the way.
Why use Snag Ears?
Snag Ears provide extra safety on obstacle-rich spots or when fishing with a closed drag. They give you the assurance that your rod will not unexpectedly slip out of the support during a run. In combination with well-adjusted reels and clamping rear supports, Snag Ears form the ideal protection for your expensive rods.
Snag Ears with extra features
There are Snag Ears with handy extras, such as models with built-in LED lighting. These not only give a cool look in the dark but also make your setup clearly visible during night fishing. Brands like Fox, Delkim, JRC and Carp Spirit offer various models, from sleek and minimalist to luxurious and illuminated.
Perfect addition to your rodpod or Banksticks
Snag Ears are easy to mount under your bite alarm on both a rodpod and on Banksticks. Especially with setups where your line lies perpendicular to the water, they offer extra security. This way you fish with confidence, even on waters where the carp can really go wild.
