The Sterling Tackle 36in Tracker Bar with 6in Machines is widely regarded as the original and highest-performing directional spreader bar on the market. The tracker bar is explicitly designed to widen the presence of your bait presentation, effectively capturing the attention of target species across a broader scope of water. These spreader bars are meticulously crafted, making them a staple for serious offshore anglers looking to maximize their catch rates.
An exceptional feature of this product is the plexiglass keel positioned beneath the lead bird. The keel enhances the bar's ability to track up to 30 ft. outward from the typical trail, which positions the bar in clearer water away from the turbulence of the prop wash. Utilizing both a port and starboard tracker bar can increase the overall span of your spread possibly up to 60 ft., offering a significant advantage whether launched from outriggers or directly from the rod tip.
The unique combination of central and wing lines equipped with 14 six-inch machine lures enhances the mimicry of a school of bait skittering on the ocean's surface, which is irresistible to predatory species. The stinger setup includes a 400lb stainless bearing swivel for connecting the 7in Mini-Machine Stinger, coupled with a robust 9/0 5x knife edge big game hook for reliable hook-ups. The center line employs a 250lb smoke blue Momoi monofilament while the wing lines are rigged with 130lb monofilament for exceptional tensile strength.
Furthermore, loop protectors are strategically placed at all vital connection points to reinforce the overall durability and prolong the usable life of the spreader bars. Each set of bars also comes with a convenient clear vinyl/mesh lure bag, facilitating hassle-free storage and simplified maintenance post fishing.
