AFTCO TAG STICKS
|

With that big blue boat side and her picture taken, why not plant a tag
and assist efforts to ensure billfish survival. The AFTCO Tag Sticks
show the fleet that you are ready to do your part for conservation. The AFTCO
Tag Sticks feature the same light, strong "swaged" aluminum shaft as AFTCO
gaffs, as well as the same tapered
tip design for quick, accurate handling in the water. Gold anodized
finish; the overall length is 6 feet. Either of our two choices of heads
can be threaded into the end of the shaft, and are easily replaceable. TSH
1 tag stick heads fit standard National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS)
tags with slotted metal heads designed for "forked" applicators.
TSH 2 tag
stick heads fit standard Billfish Foundation (TBF) tags, and current NMFS
tags with nylon heads designed for "pointed" applicators.

Fish
too big for a fixed AFTCO
Gaff? What a terrible problem to have, but fortunately we have the answer,
AFTCO
Flying Gaffs and Hooks. Sized to land any thing short of Giant Bluefin,
AFTCO
Flyers belong on any serious sport fishing boat, whether big or small.
Available in traditional gold and the new black anodized handles, these
flyers are ready to help you land your catch when matched with Canyon
flying gaff ropes. The slim, tapered tips of AFTCO's Taper
Tip Flying Gaffs slice through water faster and with greater accuracy to
minimize the problems of gaffing powerful fish. Like AFTCO's Taper Tip
Aluminum Gaffs, the shafts of these Flying Gaffs are "swaged" for uniform
strength from end to end, thereby eliminating unnecessary weight. The hook
seats in a tough plastic insert that is fitted into the gaff tip, and is
held in place by a length of 20 lb. test line tied to a steel post affixed
to the shaft. When a fish is gaffed, this line snaps, providing a clean
and immediate release. A machined aluminum gimbal at the butt of the shaft
secures the attachment rope; and along with the plastic insert in the tip,
prevents water from seeping into the shaft. If dropped overboard, the gaff
will float! Shafts are 6 feet long and are fitted with two black non slip
grips, and anodized for beauty and resistance to corrosion. The barbed
hooks are made from corrosion
resistant stainless steel and will not straighten out in use. The
triangular point gives better penetration and is easy to sharpen. All
three flying gaff hooks will fit into the standard 6' handle.

FIXED GAFFS

When it comes to gaffs, the name to trust is AFTCO.
The slim, tapered shape of AFTCO's Taper Tip Aluminum Gaffs makes them
lightning fast in the water, easier to maneuver, and deadly accurate.
They're stronger and lighter too, so they bring fish into the boat with
less flailing and confusion. The shafts are made from corrosion resistant
marine aluminum, and they are "swaged" for uniform strength from end to
end, but with no unnecessary weight. Taper Tip Gaffs are available in
traditional rich Gold
anodized finish for lasting beauty and resistance to corrosion. All models are
fitted with soft but rugged black grips molded from the same non-slip material found on the finest fishing rods. Black vinyl butt caps seal
out corrosive moisture and prevent deck scarring. The gaff hooks are
fashioned from stainless steel rods, with easy to sharpen triangular
points. The bottom line; when your trophy fish or next meal is boat side,
you want an AFTCO
in your hands or your mate's. **NOTE: Additional Shipping Charges
may apply to Gaffs over 6 feet in length. |

AFTCO
TAILER
|
With
catch and release ethics continuing to grow, the AFTCO "Tailer" can help handle
fish too large for a landing net intended for release. The
Aftco Tailer provides safer control of boated fish and allows for
injury-free tagging. The AFTCO
"Tailer" helps you bring a boated fish under control quickly and safely,
it's the ideal way to control fish while you measure them for legal size,
and can be a big help in lifting fish as heavy as 100 pounds into the
boat.
When used on a fish that is to be released, the Tailer is more effective
than lip gaffing, and it minimizes injury to the fish. Featuring a wide
loop of springy stainless steel aircraft cable, the Tailer slips easily
over the tail of your fish, and with a quick upward pull, closes instantly
and snugly. With its tail out of the water, the fish's movements are
strictly limited, so it becomes much easier to tag and release the fish,
or to lift it into the boat. A swivel built into the cable allows you to
better handle fish that roll and twist, which sharks frequently do. The
AFTCO Tailer is four feet long with an aluminum shaft anodized a rich gold for
lasting beauty and resistance to corrosion. Two soft but rugged black
grips are molded from the same non slip material found on fine rods. The 1/4
inch aircraft cable is also highly resistant to corrosion, and the smaller
cable, which actually closes around the tail, is plastic coated to protect
the fish. |

This Powerhead aka Bang Stick is a must have for Shark Hunters.
It is also a good form of protection for spear fisherman and divers who
frequent sharky waters. This powerhead does not have a trigger. It is
fired by first releasing the safety, then pressing or jabbing meaningfully
and purposefully with force against a fish.
