The Sterling Tackle 36in Tracker Bar with 6in Machines is a highly revered and effective directional spreader bar that is considered the best in the market. It is designed to enhance the range of your spread and ensure that all positions are covered.
This pre-rigged spreader bar is built on a high-grade titanium bar with a diameter of 0.125 inches. It has been tested and proven to be successful in catching pelagic fish such as tuna, dolphin, billfish, and more.
The bar features a plexiglass keel fitted beneath the lead bird, which allows the bar to track up to 30 ft. outward from its normal line. This unique feature enables the bar to run in a more visible location in the clean water outside the prop wash.
By using both a port and starboard side wide tracker bar, you can potentially increase the overall width of your spread by up to 60 ft., whether you are deploying them from an outrigger or directly from the rod tip.
The center and wing lines of the tracker bar are equipped with a total of fourteen 6 inch machines, which imitate schooling bait skittering across the surface.
The bottom teaser of the spreader bar contains a 400lb stainless bearing swivel, which is used to attach the 7in Mini-Machine Stinger that 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 monofilament.
Loop protectors are used on all critical connection points to ensure durability and stability.
Each spreader bar comes with its own clear vinyl/mesh lure bag for convenient storage and easy cleaning.
