Description

The New for 2017 Sterling "Wide Tracker" Spreader Bar has quickly become the most productive spreader bar in the Northeast. We have added a transparent plexiglass keel under the lead bar bird that causes the bar to track up to 30' feet outwards from its normal tracking line (depending on distance from boat, speed, wind and sea conditions). This allows this bar to run in clean water and attract more bites! As with all Sterling products, it is built with high quality components, is TESTED and PROVEN to catch all pelagic fish.

The included stinger and teaser rigging make it a ready-to-fish trolling spreader setup.
