Product Information

Full details

The Avid Lok Down Buzz Pod Adaptor is designed for carp anglers who prioritize precision bite detection and need to adjust their rod setups for challenging terrains. This adaptor allows you to mount alarms at precise angles, making it an essential tool for fishing with high rod tips to clear weed or marginal snags, though it is sold as a single unit, so multi-rod setups will require purchasing multiple adaptors.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this come in a pack of three?

No, the Avid Lok Down Buzz Pod Adaptor is sold as an individual unit.

Will this fit my non-Avid alarm?

Yes, it features a standard British 3/8 BSF thread which is universal for almost all fishing bite alarms.

Can I use this for river fishing?

Absolutely; it is ideal for river fishing where you often need to position rods high to keep the line out of the current and debris.

Is it made of plastic or metal?

It is constructed from high-strength, durable materials designed to handle the pressure of fishing, consistent with the Avid Lok Down range.

Does it work with standard banksticks?

Yes, it fits directly onto any bankstick or buzz bar with a standard thread.

Troubleshooting

Alarm is rotating on the adaptor

Ensure the locking collar is fully tightened against the base of the alarm.

Difficulty adjusting the angle

Loosen the locking mechanism fully before attempting to adjust the tilt to prevent thread damage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Significantly improves sensitivity by aligning the alarm with the rod angle
Provides a rock-solid, non-slip mounting point for bite alarms
Essential for high-tip rod setups to clear marginal obstacles
Compatible with a wide range of standard buzz bars and banksticks

Cons

Sold as an individual unit rather than a set
Requires adjustment for each rod if fishing multiple rods at different angles
Adds a small amount of extra height to your buzz bar setup

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the adaptor, simply screw the base into your chosen buzz bar or bankstick. Once the thread is tightened, attach your alarm to the top thread. Utilize the adjustment dial on the adaptor to set your desired angle before locking it down.

Compatibility

This unit features a universal thread pattern, making it compatible with the vast majority of modern electronic bite alarms on the market. It is optimized for the Avid Carp bankware range but functions well with most standard aluminum and stainless steel banksticks.

Care Instructions

After fishing in wet or silty conditions, rinse the threads with fresh water and allow them to air dry. Avoid using heavy lubricants as they can attract grit; a light dry silicone spray is sufficient to keep the locking mechanism smooth.
