Description
The completely new redesigned airlock strike indicators are available in 1/2”, 3/4” sizes in resealable 3-packs.
*BIODEGRADABLE
We believe in keeping our waterways as clean as possible. We redesigned our popular strike indicators with biodegradable foam so those indicators that end up floating away for any reason will break down over time.
Not to be confused with “water soluble:” Air-Lock Biodegradable Strike Indicators will not dissolve or be compromised in any way during normal use.
Biodegrading happens when the material is left in the elements: mud, water, mulch, compost, etc. over a long period of time.
*NEW DESIGN
The new biodegradable foam has more benefits beyond keeping our waterways cleaner. The new design out-performs the original plastic design in every way.
30% Lighter: Easier, more efficient casting and delivery. Suspends 25% more weight on the water.
Stealth: Neutral-colored post is less visible to fish, and the lighter overall weight lands softer on the water.
Sensitivity: Better strike detection.
Durability: No more leaks, dents, holes, cracks or pops! Easier to see leader slot when attaching.
Hurts 38.6% less when you hit yourself in the back of the head on a forward cast.
*RIGGING
One thing that has not changed: The most innovative locking mechanism in the world for attaching to your leader.
Standard Rigging: Unscrew the locking nut. Lay the butt section of your leader in the slot. Replace the locking nut and tighten down
Note: For smaller diameter leaders, you can remove the rubber washer for a tighter fit. This will not result in a damaged leader.
90 Degree Rigging: Remove the locking nut, thread your leader through the locking nut and slide up to the butt section. Place leader butt section in the slot on top of the indicator. Tighten locking nut down on the post as shown with leader sticking out one side, then out the top.

Great idea. Works as advertised. Easy to adjust. One word of caution. Be careful when you put them on. Best to do it ever a flat, clean surface, like a car hood, so if you drop the little rubber washer you do not lose it. If you do, it’s done for.

These work better than others I have tried. I have used other types of indicators, depending on the water, fish spookiness or light. I like that they don’t kink your leader, leave a glue residue on your line or slide as some have. They adjust easily to change depths as needed. I have used the clear, which doesn’t spook the fish. There is an extra cap in the package, but the washer may pop off time to time. Overall, a great indicator to use.

I actually have some fans on a Facebook page related to this stuff. I’ll share your post with them and see what they have to say. I’m sure they’ll love it though.
