Item Description
Taper-Tip Flying Gaffs. With Breakaway hook for gaffing powerful fish. Barbed Triangular hook. Plastic insert seals out water to prevent corrosion. Line snaps to release the hook from the shaft. AFTCO Flying Gaffs should be rigged with soft, 5/8” diameter, 3-strand nylon rope spliced directly to the hook eye. IGFA allows a maximum combined length of 25 feet of total rope and hook, but for most boats, the rope should only be as long as the farthest distance a crew member can reach with the gaff from its point of attachment to the boat. Flying gaff hooks should be tied in to the stainless attaching post on the aluminum handle using a single turn of 20 or 30-lb line. The nylon rope should be stretched tight and passed around the end of the handle, through the gimbal, and back up past the second handle grip, where it can be secured with a couple of wraps of 1” masking tape. The rope should be gripped to the handles by the gaffer, and released as soon as the gaff hook is planted into the fish and breaks loose from the handle.

Flying gaff rope is included with complete sets only and not included with handles or hooks.
