Usage Tips and Recommended Setups

• Use dynamic animation (rapid rise followed by a slow and controlled descent).


• Ideal technique: alternate short dry animation phases with long pauses under constant tension to provoke reflex attacks from squid and cuttlefish.


• Favor lightweight and sensitive equipment to facilitate bite detection.
