Sterling Tackle Bars can be trolled from flat lines, outriggers or high positions. The bar will skip across the surface and occasionally duck under a wave, only to break out and spray the lures across the surface. It is this repeated action that make spreader bars the "deadliest" lure in the northeast.
Internal cigar floats improve tracking and allow the bar to remain floating while fighting a fish on another line.
18" bars should be fished with tackle of 20# class and higher (These are excellent light tackle bars, troll very nicely from outriggers, even way, way, way back)
36" bars should be fished with tackle from 30# class to 80# class
Spreader bars work best when trolled 5-8 knots
The "spring" in the bar is critical for increased action of outside lures. Typical oversized 1/8" stainless steel bars do not have the "spring" effect and create excess water drag.
