Product Information

Full details

The RidgeMonkey MarkaPole Kit is an essential tool for carp and specimen anglers who need to mark fishing spots with precision from a boat. It allows you to create a semi-permanent, highly visible marker system that stands upright in the water, ensuring your baited area remains easy to find throughout your session. While the system is highly effective at maintaining accuracy, users should note that setting it up requires boat access and careful depth measurement before deployment.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum depth this kit covers?

The kit includes 7 meters of total pole length, making it suitable for depths up to 7 meters.

Can I use the MarkaLite with this kit?

Yes, the system is fully compatible with MarkaLite stems, which can be purchased separately for night-time visibility.

Is the base weight included?

Yes, a 2kg no-snag base weight is included in the kit.

How do I extend the kit for deeper water?

You can purchase additional MarkaPole Extension Kits to reach greater depths beyond the initial 7 meters.

Will the reflective stem work in the dark?

The ReflectaStem is highly reflective, meaning it will show up clearly when hit with a headtorch beam.

Is the system easy to pack away?

Yes, the system breaks down into smaller, manageable sections that fit neatly into the included hardwearing carry case.

Troubleshooting

The pole is leaning significantly due to current.

Verify that the base weight is sitting flat on the bottom and consider adding additional weight if the water flow is extreme.

Difficulty disconnecting pole sections after use.

Rinse the joints thoroughly with fresh water to remove grit or sand that may have accumulated during the session.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup is straightforward: start by connecting the base weight to the first pole section. Continue adding sections based on the sonar depth reading of your chosen spot. Ensure the connections are tight to prevent the pole from swaying excessively in the current. This kit is fully compatible with all existing RidgeMonkey MarkaPole components, including separately purchased MarkaLite illuminated stems for night fishing. After your session, disassemble the poles, wipe them down to remove silt or weed debris, and store them in the provided hardwearing carry case to prevent scratching or damage during transport.
