Bankstick L: 90-165cm L: 90cm black
The Black Cat Bankstick (Erdspieß — ground spike) is a telescopic aluminium bank stick designed specifically for mounting line diverters in catfish (Wels catfish) fishing, with the flexibility to serve as a rod rest or bite alarm holder too.
Extending steplessly from 90 cm up to 165 cm, this bankstick lets you position a single diverter or a full tripod setup exactly where you need it — high enough to guide your mainline clear of the water surface and around obstacles before it drops to the rig. The continuous adjustment means no fiddling with fixed increments on uneven banks.
The threaded head accepts a single line diverter for a straightforward two-rod layout, or pairs with the Black Cat Tripod Adapter to support a buzzer bar carrying two diverters simultaneously. Either way, your catfish lines stay elevated over long distances, reducing drag and keeping them free from bankside snags. The aluminium construction keeps weight down — the unit comes in at 310 g — without sacrificing the rigidity needed when a large cat runs.
Black Cat offers two lengths of this aluminium bankstick to match your preferred rig height and bank conditions:
Bankstick 90–165 cm (transport length 90 cm, black) — the current model; well suited to standard catfish diverter rigs, single-diverter mounting, and tripod setups where moderate height is sufficient; practical transport length for most rod bags
Bankstick 115–200 cm (transport length 115 cm, black) — extends to 200 cm for extra-elevated diverter or tripod mounting; ideal for very steep banks, high obstacles, or setups requiring maximum line clearance
