This highly sensitive, wind-resistant bite indicator attaches directly to your rod tip. It delivers precise, direct bite detection regardless of wave action or wind speed.
Whether you are fishing deep water or battling a gale, the Sidewinder Mk4 ensures you see every single knock.

Why Choose the Sidewinder Mk4?
When the wind picks up and conditions get tough, the Polaris Sidewinder Mk4 becomes your secret weapon.
It eliminates the "chatter" caused by waves on a standard quiver tip, presenting a calm, stable signal that only moves when a fish moves the line.
Standard quiver tips bounce with every wave. The Sidewinder stays still until a fish bites.
Tackle windy days with confidence.
How to Use the Polaris Sidewinder Mk4
For optimal performance:
-
Find the depth of the water you are fishing
-
Set your rig to fish approximately 3–4 feet deeper than the water depth
-
Attach the Sidewinder to your rod tip using the Kwik Change pigtail eye
-
The Sidewinder will sit perfectly on the line, maximising its sensitivity
That's it. You're ready to fish in conditions that would send other anglers home.

The Problem It Solves
Standard quiver tips bounce with every wave and gust of wind. You spend all day watching false indications, second-guessing every movement, and missing real bites.
The Sidewinder Mk4 attaches directly to your rod tip and reads only the movement of the line itself. Wave action and wind have no effect.
What you get is a calm, stable, reliable bite indicator that only moves when a fish moves the line.
