The Sterling Tackle 36in Tracker Bar with 9in Machines has gained a strong reputation as the original and best directional spreader bar available. It is designed to enhance your fishing spread and consistently cover all positions. Made from a high-grade titanium bar with a diameter of 0.125 inches, these pre-rigged spreader bars have been tested and proven to attract pelagic fish such as tuna, dolphin, billfish, and more.
One unique feature is the inclusion of a plexiglass keel underneath the lead bird. This keel allows the bar to track up to 30 feet outward from its normal tracking line. As a result, the bar can run in a more visible location in the clean water outside the prop wash. For an even greater spread width, you have the option to use both a port and starboard side wide tracker bar, potentially increasing your spread by up to 60 feet. Whether you're attaching them to an outrigger or directly from the rod tip, these bars can significantly enhance your fishing experience.
The center and wing lines of the bar are fitted with a total of nine 9-inch machines, which effectively imitate schooling bait skittering across the water's surface. The bottom teaser features a 400lb stainless bearing swivel used to connect the 9in Mini-Machine Stinger, which is rigged on a 9/0 5x strong knife edge big game hook. The center line is rigged with 250lb smoke blue Momoi monofilament, while the wing lines are rigged with 130lb line. To ensure the durability and reliability of the connections, loop protectors are used at all critical points of connection.
For convenient storage and easy clean-up, each spreader bar comes with its own clear vinyl/mesh lure bag. This allows you to keep your gear organized and protected when not in use.
