The Sterling tackle 18in Tracker Bar with 6in Machines is widely regarded within the angling community for its innovative design and effectiveness in enhancing fishing spreads. The tracker bar is synonymous with superior directional spreader bar performance, enabling anglers to significantly widen their scope during deep-sea fishing pursuits.
Constructed from high-tensile, .125 inch diameter titanium bar, these pre-rigged spreader bars undergo rigorous testing under real-world conditions to ensure their ability to attract a range of pelagic species effectively. The bar's impressive performance in luring fish such as tuna, dolphin (mahi-mahi), billfish, and others make it an essential tool for sport and commercial fishing endeavors.
The innovative design features a plexiglass keel strategically placed beneath the lead bird, which causes the Tracker Bar to track up to 30 ft. outward – creating an optimal fishing path clear of the boat's prop wash. This characteristic can be advantageous when employing both port and starboard wide tracker bars. Doing so has the potential to augment your fishing spread's width by an impressive 60 ft.
The attractiveness of the bar is enhanced by ten 6 inch machine lures set up on the center and wing lines. The lures are crafted to emulate a school of baitfish, an irresistible visual cue to predatory fish in the vicinity. To augment the appeal, a 400lb stainless bearing swivel is included, which attaches to the formidable 7in Mini-Machine Stinger, armed with a 9/0 5x strong knife edge big game hook.
For added durability and resilience, particularly in the rigorous marine environment, the Tracker Bar incorporates 250lb smoke blue Momoi monofilament on the center line and 130lb monofilament on the wing lines, further secured by loop protectors at all crucial junctions.
Each Sterling Tackle spreader bar comes complete with a convenient clear vinyl/mesh lure bag for simplified storage and maintenance after an eventful day on the water.
