DETAILS Ideal for king mackerel tournament fishermen, this AFTCO 12-foot, two-piece gaff features a black anodized shaft that is divided into an 8-foot forward section with hook, and a 4-foot rear section, complete with two rugged black vinyl grips. Constructed from the same 6061-T6 marine grade aluminum that's a feature of other gaffs in the AFTCO line, this model is joined in the middle with a ferrule and collet nut characteristic of the AFTCO Unibutt, the standard for the industry. The ferrule and collet nut "joint" is extremely strong, lightweight and fully waterproof when assembled. Both the ferrule and collet nut are permanently attached to the 8-foot forward section, which can optionally be used as a stand-alone gaff. When both sections are used together, the two pieces can be separated in seconds and stored separately. Equipped with a three-inch stainless steel hook, this is an ideal gaff for landing King Mackerel, Wahoo, Dolphin and Tuna, as well as other medium-sized saltwater gamefish.

DETAILS The slim, tapered shape of AFTCO's Taper-Tip Aluminum Gaffs makes them lightning fast in the water—easier to maneuver and deadly accurate. They're stronger and lighter too, so they bring the fish to the boat with less flailing and confusion. The shafts are made from corrosion-resistant marine aluminum and they are swaged for uniform strength from end to end, but with no unnecessary weight. Available in our traditional rich gold and popular lustrous black finishes—both anodized for lasting beauty and resistance to saltwater corrosion. All models are fitted with soft but rugged black grips molded from the same non-slip material found on the finest fishing rods. Vinyl butt caps seal out corrosive moisture and prevent deck scarring.

DETAILS AFTCO Tapered Fiberglass Gaffs feature special thick-walled, super strong yet lightweight E-glass handle construction custom designed for extreme strength and rigidity. All our fiberglass handles are rolled on proprietary mandrels using specific tapers developed by AFTCO and are fitted in our factory with the same stainless steel hooks used on our aluminum gaffs. Featuring a rich dark brown epoxy finish with hand wrapped black and metallic gold trim, each gaff has a functional black nylon seine cord handle and Turk’s head. The 6 and 8 foot models float if dropped overboard.
