Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the ReflectaStem, simply screw the base onto your chosen MarkaPole or bank stick using the 3/8 thread. If you are not using a pole, use the provided carabiner and hanging loop to secure the stem to an overhanging branch or existing structure. Ensure the reflective surface is facing toward your primary fishing station to maximize the return light. For care, wipe down the reflective surface with a damp, non-abrasive cloth after use to maintain its reflective efficiency. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the reflective coating. When not in use, store in a dry location to prevent debris buildup.
