Lesson plan
Bite indicator
A bite indicator is any signalling device (mechanical or electronic) used in angling which alerts the fisherman of what is happening at the hook end of the fishing line, particularly whether a fish has swallowed (i.e. "bite") the hook. It is the quintessential tackle used in bait fishing, which depends partly on luck and often requires unpredictable periods of time passively waiting for fish to bite the hook.
