Campocatcher - High Tech Rod Holder And Fish Sensor

What is it?
The campocatcher is a world first interactive rod holder and fish sensor. It flashes lights when a fish is on the line and sounds alarms when a fish has been hooked and even tells you when a fish is on the line! (grab the rod)

How does the campocatcher work?

A specially designed electronic microswitch activated by tension created only by a fish! The switch is fully concealed, is virtually waterproof and will also work under water (although not recommended).

The switch is patented and designed specifically for sensing fish bites.

How do anglers use the campocatcher?

*once an angler has cas the fishing line with bait on hook into the water, the angler places the rod in the rod holder
*the angler then feeds the fishing line through the fishing line guide to the hook sensor, located at the top of the rod stand
*the angler then adjusts the sensitivity of the unit to the fishing line tension and the water conditions. (high sensitivity for still water conditions, lower sensitivity for strong currents)
*wait until a fish bites or strikes, watch the lights flash, listen to the buzzer or voice alarm (grab the rod) for a fish bite.
*when a fish bites, quickly unhook the fishing line from the sensor, pull back on the flip cylinder rod holder and start reeling in your catch
