By changing leg positions you can pump your rod with incredible force. When not in use, you can slide the StrikeFighter™ around to your side or back out of the way.

Why can a 70-pound fish wear a 170-pound man to a frazzle? Leverage! The fish has leverage. The illustration shows you a typical setup.

The illustrations above and below shows you a typical setup as viewed through mechanical leverage.

Unleash this monster the StrikeFighter™ into the equation and now the leverage reverses to the angler. (using the law of physics gives the angler the ability to use their entire body weight and leverage against the fish) That what gives the StrikeFighter™ its incredible power.

It gives you the flexibility to fight either way or a combination of the two. The StrikeFighter™ slides to your side and while leaving your rod mounted in your StrikeFighter™ allow you too have rail control to move with the fish.
