Description

The AFTCO Flying Gaff Handle is built for fast, controlled gaffing when every second matters. Its slim, tapered profile moves cleanly through the water, while the swaged shaft delivers strong, even performance without unnecessary weight. Dual non-slip grips help maintain control in wet conditions, and the anodized Gold or Black finish adds long-lasting protection in harsh saltwater environments. Designed for serious offshore use, this 6'7" handle features a machined aluminum gimbal, reinforced tip insert, and a quick-release rigging system that separates cleanly after the strike. It also floats if dropped overboard and pairs with compatible stainless steel barbed hooks in multiple sizes for targeting powerful game fish.
