Sportsdykker henter SnurreSniken™ taukveile fra 180 meters dyp med batteridrill i marin setting

We tested SnurreSniken™ at a depth of 180 meters – using a battery drill

SnurrereSniken™ has become a favorite among hobby and recreational anglers, and we decided to test how far we could take it – literally. The goal? To retrieve the catch from a depth of 180 meters using something as simple as a regular battery drill.

The result? Surprisingly impressive!

We connected the drill to the crank and got started. The line rolled smoothly and steadily up from the bottom, and the entire retrieval went faster than expected. Not only did we save time and effort, but we also avoided heavy and bulky equipment.

SnurreSniken™ shows that it is possible to combine traditional fishing with modern simplicity.

This is what we used in the test:

  • SnurreSniken™ pre-rigged

  • 180 meters depth in a calm fjord

  • Standard battery drill (18V)

  • Drill adapter for crank (available in the online store)

Why this works:

  • Even resistance in the line

  • Low friction in the crank mechanism

  • Stable buoyancy that makes the job easier

A tool for everyone – regardless of experience

SnurreSniken™ just as suitable for you who fish once a year as for you who have a permanent spot in the boat. And now we know for sure that it is also possible to retrieve large catches from great depths – without a winch, power block, or complicated rig.
