Tips for buying the best carpfishing pendulums
– What is a carpfishing tensioner?
A carpfishing tensioner, also called a pendulum is a carpfishing accessory that is anchored to the alarm at one end and hooked to our line at the other.
A tensioner is an indicator of pitting. The moment a fish eats our bait and is keyed, it will begin to pull our line, to which the tensioner or pendulum is hooked. In this way, the tensioner will move and indicate that on the other side of our cane our long-awaited capture is waiting for us. In addition, it will tell us in which direction the fish is going, because if when biting, it advances towards the opposite shore, the tensioner will move upwards (the line is tense), while, if the fish comes in our direction, the tensioner for fishing it will tend to move downwards (the line is de-tensioned).
The name tensor is coined because another of its functions is to help us tighten our line once we have launched the cane, so that it is as tight and straight as possible, without the line making excessive rope.
– What kind of carpfishing pendulums exist?
There are two types of tensors or pendulums. One group would be formed by chain tensors and the other group is composed of bar tensioners.
Both types of tensioners are used equally in carpfishing. Your choice depends on the specific taste of the fisherman.
We can also classify them into luminous and non-luminous tensioners or pendulums.
The luminous pendulums for fishing are the best sellers for carpfishing, because they will emit light when we have a bite, so that when it is night, we can easily identify the rod that has managed to deceive our fish.
– What colors of fishing tensioners can we find?
There is a wide range of colors. We can find blue, purple, red, yellow, orange, black, white and green tensors. All colors of tensioners are sold equally, it is left to the choice of the fisherman according to his own tastes. However, greens, reds and yellows are most often used.
– What to consider to buy a tensioner?
One of the most sought-after characteristics of a tensioner is its luminosity. When it is night in the carpfishing sessions, the most comfortable option to realize which rod is the one in which the fish has bitten, is seeing the corresponding tensioner illuminated. This luminous tensioner is associated with a cable that connects to the alarm and allows it to illuminate. In the darkness of the night, the light of the tensioner will clearly indicate in which direction we must run to reach the correct rod and get our catch.
If we buy a chain tensioner, we must take into account the following recommendation: place the first ring of the rod behind the alarm, so that, when biting a fish, the tensioner does not pass inside the alarm and when nailing the catch jump and disarm all our equipment.
– In what format are the tensioners sold?
We can find both individual carpfishing tensioners or tensioner cases, which include several pendulums of different colors.
Tensioners in individual format are very economical and, generally, the ones that sell the most. This is because fishermen who already have their alarm of a certain color, can choose and buy only the tensioner of the same color.
On the other hand, sets of tensioners that come in briefcases also have a very good reputation in the market. The briefcase makes the tensioners more protected during transport and storage.
