2) Attach the included clips (or use you own clips according to your own personal preferences) to the fiberglass rods. Ensure that the clips are tightly fastened to the rod. For single wire applications place the clip no higher than halfway up the rod.

3) Attach clip to the fencing wire using a small piece of wire as illustrated to ensure that the Slough Stick doesn't slide back and forth along the fencing wire during extreme weather conditions.

4) Depending on your order, you may notice that some Slough Sticks in your package may come with an anchoring wire hanging out the bottom of the base. If you are fencing across a larger body of water or an open area where there is the possibility of extreme water movement and windy conditions we recommend that you attach a weight of approximately 5 lbs. (a cultivator shovel) directly to the bottom of these base units and letting it hang in the water. Attach one weighted Slough Stick in every 3rd or 4th spot along the wire depending on conditions. This will help keep the wire stable in extreme conditions.

5) The Slough Stick is designed to work with 1 or 2 wire barbed or electric fence wires but may be used with any type of fencing application including a variety of other practical portable dry land fencing applications including swath grazing.
