How much do the XL sticks weigh?

Can I use these on gravel banks?
They work on most bank types, but be careful not to force them into solid rock or concrete as this may damage the tip.
Do they come with a storage bag?
Yes, a heavy-duty carry bag is included to protect the sticks during transport.
Why choose the XL version?
The XL version measures 94cm, making them easier to push into soft ground and more visible when working in long grass.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty pushing sticks into hard ground
Use a rubber mallet or the butt of your rod to carefully tap the sticks into the ground, but avoid using excessive force that might bend the shaft.
Line slipping off the sticks
Ensure the sticks are angled slightly outward if the line is jumping off, or reduce the speed at which you wrap the line to maintain consistent tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, choose a flat section of the bank and push the sticks into the ground using the provided cord to ensure they are exactly 12ft apart. Always ensure the sticks are vertical for consistent line tension. Regarding care, wipe the sticks clean after use to remove dirt, mud, or debris from the finish. Store them in the provided heavy-duty carry bag when not in use to prevent bending or scuffing. These sticks are compatible with all standard fishing reels that feature a functional line clip.
