Here is what area fisherman have had to say about Assured Strike Pole Holder:

"The first fish ever caught on the pole holder was in a shallow lake with winds from 35 to 45 mph. It took me a few minutes to get my line tight because of the wind and moss. After a short time Freda saw the bobber move just a very, very little. I waited it did it again; I picked up my pole and just nudged it and reeled it in. It was an 11/4 inch trout this shows this pole holder is not a gimmick or gadget it works. I caught 17 trout in 37mins one time with this pole holder. Darin said other people have caught more than that."

A guy in OH used it on a river and bobber did the same thing to him as it did to me, the fish he caught was a 132 1/2 lb cat fish. He does not work at the same place and I can not get it touch with him. He worked for the guy that makes them for me in OH. Darin's number is 740 820 4458 if you would like to talk to him.

Doug Dawson, Lucasville, OH: "1st time he took it to the river to catfish with he not only caught several 12 to 30lbs cats he also found out it was so sensitive he was also using it to catch 4-6"bait fish in 7mph river."

Gabrielle & Elizabeth Brisker, Minford, OH: "I took one of the rod holders fishing with me to try but when we got to the river I was too interested in fishing I didn't take the time to set it up. Once my 9 & 11year old daughters saw it lying on the bank and read the box, they had it set up and were catching fish within 5 minutes, they ended up catching 20 to 25 and I caught 3 without it."
