Like our Taper-Tip Aluminum Gaffs, the shafts of our Flying Gaffs are “swaged” for uniform strength from end to end, thereby eliminating unnecessary weight. Â The hook seats in a tough plastic insert fitted into the gaff tip, and is held in place by a length of 30-lb. test line tied to a steel post affixed to the shaft. Â When a fish is gaffed, this line snaps, providing a clean and immediate release. Â A machined aluminum gimbal at the butt of the shaft secures the attachment rope; and along with the plastic insert in the tip, prevents water from seeping into the shaft. Â If dropped overboard, the gaff handle (minus hook) will float! Â Shafts are 6′ 7″ long,with 1-3/8″ butt diameters fitted with two black non-slip grips, and anodized with a rich Gold or lustrous Black finish for beauty and resistance to corrosion. Â The barbed hooks are made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel and will not straighten out in use. Â The triangular points give better penetration and are easy to sharpen. Â AFTCO Flying Gaff Hooks are available in 5, 6, 8, 10, & 13-inch sizes. Â All four fit in the same shaft.
