When fishing offshore for bluefin only the very best
tuna tackle will do.
Visit our online tackle store at
 www.bluefintunatackle.com
Our floating squid rigs, spreader bars and tuna lures have
been proven to catch fish from Maine to North Carolina.
Whether you are targeting giant bluefin tuna, or
school size tuna we suggest that you have a complete arsenal
of offshore lures, squid bars and bait to be consistently
successful. With the long run to the grounds and the high
price of fuel you have to be able to "match the hatch" on
any given day.
All of our
tackle has been fully tested by our
charter captains
and proven to be a leader in catching bluefin.
We have provided photos of our products with
links for more detail as well as fishing
pictures for your enjoyment.
Our staff has decades of
both commercial and recreational bluefin tuna fishing
experience. So not only can we offer you the tuna tackle
that you need, but we can also give you all the specifics on
how and when to use them. Below you will find bluefin tuna
specific rigs, teasers, and spreader bars including the new
G-TEK system that everyone is talking about.
Good luck and Tightlines!
Capt. Jack

Carlson Squid Rigs
are offered as a bird bar or squid bar in
36" stainless steel, 36" titanium, and 48"
stainless steel bar configurations as shown at
left. (the stinger is hanging on the right side
for picture purposes only. The last squid on the
main line has a 350 lb Pro lock ball bearing
swivel buried in the body that is used for
attaching the stinger of your choice).
All
Carlson Squid rigs
come standard with detachable
stingers offering more versatility. All 9" bars
have an 11" stinger, all 11" bars have a 13"
stinger, and the 13" bars have a 13" stinger.
All
Carlson Squid rigs
are built using a new custom line of shell
squid. These are (in our opinion, as well as
anybody who has seen, held, or fished them) the
finest shell squid on the market today. These
squid feature a heavier wall thickness than the
"competition" and is consistent throughout the
squid body. The squid colors are all proven
favorites, and the coloring of the squid is rich
and vibrant. To top it off, these squid have the
best eyes around. Don't take my word for it
though...You be the judge.
*If You would
like
flotation in your
teasers or a
weighted stinger
please indicate it on your order.
*We have all
the new squid
colors. Lipstick red/glow, purple, blue and
tomato.
Also, green
glow, glow, rainbow and pink stingers fished
best for us in 20010.
Available squid
sizes.

Carlson
Birds are by far the best birds on the
market today. With over a year in development,
these birds have been tested and perfected by
the best in the business.
These birds are 12" long, front weighted, and
balanced perfectly to be trolled up to 15 knots.
With 8 awesome glowing paint schemes to choose
from, these birds are the choice of the offshore
fleet.
Click here
for further
details.
*We started using
these great birds when they were introduced in
2008. They were unique, of better quality and
with a lower price than other birds we compared.
A must for any offshore tackle box. |
