Troubleshooting
Bait slipping out of the band
Ensure you are using the correct size bait for the band; if the band is overstretched, replace the rig.
Line tangling during the cast
Check your casting technique and ensure your feeder is landing smoothly; consider using an anti-tangle boom if the issue persists.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use, simply remove the Rig Stick from the packaging and slide it directly into your compatible Mag Store System box. When attaching bait, ensure the band is stretched securely over the pellet or bandum to avoid losing it during the cast. For maintenance, rinse the hooks in fresh water after every session to prevent corrosion, especially if fishing in saline or mineral-rich environments. Inspect the Reflo Power line before each trip for any signs of abrasion or nicks, particularly near the hook eye and the knot, and replace the rig immediately if the line appears compromised.
