Bank Ware

Setting Up Your Swim

A rod sat at the right angle makes bite detection easier and keeps line where you want it — low and into the water on a windy day, higher when you’re fishing a feeder into a bit of flow. Keepnet arms hold the net properly so fish stay in good condition, which matters for both the fish and the fishery rules. If you pole fish, a decent roller setup that’s level and set at the right height saves your back and stops sections getting scuffed on the bank. Check threads for wear now and then, since it’s always the one bearing the weight that goes.
