Product Information
Full details
The Korum Angle Tilt Butt Cup is designed for specimen and feeder anglers who require a secure rod-holding solution when fishing with high rod tips. Its primary benefit is providing a stable, adjustable base that prevents rod movement during powerful bites, making it an essential tool for high-pressure fishing scenarios. One notable caveat is that while it is highly adjustable, it is specifically intended for use with banksticks, buzz bars, or accessory arms, rather than functioning as a standalone rod rest.

FAQs
Can this be used on all banksticks?
Yes, it features a standard British thread that is compatible with virtually all banksticks, buzz bars, and chair accessories.
Is this suitable for heavy carp rods?
Yes, the standard version is robust enough for most carp rods, though for particularly thick grips, the Korum Angle Tilt Butt Cup XL is also available.
Does it come with an isotope included?
No, the isotope slot is provided to accommodate standard isotopes purchased separately.
Can I leave this attached during transport?
It is recommended to unscrew the butt cup from the bankstick during transport to prevent damage to the threads or the tilt mechanism.
How do I adjust the angle?
The mechanism is designed for infinite adjustment; simply tilt the cup to the desired position and ensure your rod tension holds it in the sweet spot.
Troubleshooting
The butt cup moves under heavy bites
Ensure the threaded connection is tightened fully to the bankstick and check that the tilt adjustment tension screw is secure.
The isotope does not fit securely
Verify the size of the isotope used; the slot is designed for standard angling isotopes. You may use a small dab of adhesive if it feels loose.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the butt cup, simply screw the threaded base onto your chosen bankstick or buzz bar until hand-tight. Adjust the tilt mechanism to your desired angle before placing your rod into the cup. Periodically check that the thread has not vibrated loose if fishing in very high-wind environments or when dealing with exceptionally heavy rods. To maintain the life of the product, rinse with fresh water after use, especially if fishing in saltwater or silty environments, to prevent sediment from clogging the tilt adjustment mechanism.
