The Sterling Tackle 36in Tracker Bar with 6in Bulb Squid is well-known for being the original and most effective directional spreader bar on the market. It is designed to increase the width of your spread and ensure that all positions are covered. The bar is made from a high-grade titanium material with a .125 inch diameter.
These pre-rigged spreader bars have been tested and proven to catch pelagic fish such as tuna, dolphin, billfish, and more. They are equipped with a plexiglass keel under the lead bird, which helps the bar track up to 30 ft. outward from its normal tracking line. This allows the bar to run in a more visible location in clean water, away from the prop wash.
If you use 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're putting them from an outrigger or directly from the rod tip.
The center and wing lines of the spreader bar are loaded with a total of fourteen 6 inch bulb squids, which simulate schooling bait skittering across the surface. The bottom teaser features a 400lb stainless bearing swivel that is used to attach the 7in 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 monofilament. Loop protectors are used on all critical connection points to ensure durability and strength.
Each spreader bar comes with its own clear vinyl/mesh lure bag for easy storage and wash down, keeping your gear organized and protected.
