“REEL GRABBER”

A truly unique heavy duty device for holding rod and reel—or just the rod. The “REEL GRABBER” secures the rod when inserted with flexible fingers that won’t allow the rod to slide up or down through the roughest boat or beach buggy bouncing. In addition, when a spinning reel is attached to the rod, the two ears on the top of the cap actually fold over the reel stem and hold it securely from bouncing or turning. When used with conventional reels, the two ears position themselves between the spool and reel foot, again preventing the rod and reel from rotating. The soft plastic material cushions the rod and reel to prevent scratching and marring the most delicate or expensive equipment. Fits pipe with 2” outside diameter. Color: Black Item No. RHRG1 Price: $9.95 ea.

Bags Our line of Surf bags set the standard of what a surf bag should be. These bags were designed by The Surfcaster and are manufactured by The Surfcaster right here in the USA. Our line of lure bags offers you an ideal way to store and carry lures, leaders and rigs. These lightweight bags are made of an extremely tough non-water absorbing, non-shrinking material. They will shed water, yet breathe. Therefore, they will not get wet, get heavy, promote hook corrosion, or require drying before being stored

with other gear. Nylon reinforced throughout, these bags are as rugged and good looking as they are functional. They are designed and built to last! We have included an extra large front flap pocket to carry leaders, snaps, extra spools, pliers, knife, scale, etc. Corrosion-proof hardware. Extra wide, adjustable, and very comfortable shoulder straps — all bags come with belt loops to allow use as shoulder bag or belt bag. Each bag comes with 8” high-impact polycarbonate fully-formed inserts which are designed to handle the full cross-section of lures in use today.

PENN SPINFISHER V SERIES REELS

The Penn Spinfisher V is the fifth generation of Penns Spinfisher line - and arguably its best yet! The Spinfisher has plenty of great features, including a new water tight design with 6 seals (9 on the live liner models) to give you peace of mind in the surf or on the boat. The sealed design keeps saltwater out of the drag and gearbox to keep it running smoothly in rough conditions. The Slammer Drag System features a sealed system using HT-100 drag washers that are located under the spool. Using the oversize drag knob you can really crank down the pressure if the fight gets intense. The Superline Spool has a rubber gasket that eliminates the need for backing by keeping line from slipping in the core of the spool. The Spinfisher V spools also feature line capacity rings to let you know how much line you’ve got when you’re spooling and during a fight. The Live Liner models feature a switchable drag that allows baitfish to swim with less drag resistance, and cranking the reel switches back to the main drag to fight your fish.

CENTURY FISHING RODS

Rods

Century rods have made their way to the U.S. in recent years. Advanced Fishing imports these rods from the U.K. and their selection of blanks are suited very well for surf fishing. What sets them apart from other blanks is the special blend of epoxy resin, the finest grade of carbon fiber, and their autoclave process. During the curing stage of the blank, the autoclave process is able to keep total control of pressure and temperature. The results of this process is a very lightweight, thin walled rod with excellent, flexibility, strength, and durability. We’ve had a chance to fish with these rods and their casting ability is effortless! These rods have been proven from the beaches of the Atlantic to the shores of Central America. The Surfcaster is pleased to be a dealer of Century rods for 2013.

SLING SHOT SERIES SPINNING RODS The Sling Shot series from Century is an impressive lightweight surf rod that is built to do as its name implies - sling those lures way out into the surf and catch trophy fish. These are pre-built rods featuring a shrink tube rod butt, Fuji DSP reel seat, and Fuji Alconite K Series guides with black wraps. Blank pricing is also available. Call for pricing on a custom Sling Shot rod by The Surfcaster.

This series features the slower rod action that many Northeast anglers prefer but does it with an incredible blend of lightweight high modulus carbons in an extremely thin profile blank. These rods load evenly in that familiar smooth and forgiving arc while having a flexible tip that provides the ability to work Poppers, Swimmers and bucktails well. The extremely thin taper cuts effortlessly through the wind often encountered casting from the beaches and rock piles of the Striper Coast. The high modulus carbon blend with no woven fiber adds casting performance never before experienced in slower action rods.

S8 SURF SERIES SPINNING RODS The S8 Surf series is the lightest, most powerful long range casting blanks in the world today. These blanks feature a zoned action; the butt is stiff and tapers into a moderate midsection and then a fast action tip. This design transfers all the power you put into the cast efficiently to your payload. The Surf series excels at casting plugs and poppers at large predatory fish and has become a favorite of many who chase Roosters and Jacks on Mexican beaches. Metals are put in orbit and schools on the far side of the bar are no longer safe. The S8 works well built as spinners or conventional and the heavier rated rods perform extremely well as weight and bait heavers targeting stripers, drum and sharks.

Lures - Plastics NORTHBAR TACKLE BOTTLEDARTER Northbar Tackle joined the fray in 2009 by a couple fisherman who’ve spent over 40 years fishing the beaches around Montauk and Long Island. Their design addressed the shortcomings of some of the lures they used over the years, and with more than two years of R&D, the Bottledarter has emerged! Upon receiving these lures, it was tested by the staff at The Surfcaster and quickly proved itself by catching Stripers at Block Island as well as along the Connecticut shore. Northbar Lures are made in the USA using high-grade hardware and thru-wire construction. Features Krok swivels, Wolverine split-rings, and VMC 3/0 4x strong hooks. Item No. Weight (oz) Length (In.)

REBEL SALTWATER JUMPIN’ MINNOW —————————————————————— The Rebel Jumpin’ Minnow has re-surfaced after a period of obscurity, during which time, veteran anglers vigilantly guarded their remaining stock. A Jumpin’ Minnow glides from side to side, skimming the surface like a baitfish fleeing a furious predator, and its old-style lead rattle creates a distinctive call that beckons fish from far away. It casts like a bullet and ranks among the easiest to work of all walking baits. Item No. LURJM

Lures - Eels, Droppers, Teasers

SURFCASTER DROPPERS (TEASERS) ——— Droppers, sometimes called Teasers, have been used by knowledgeable surf fishermen for many years. They are usually used in conjunction with a swimming-type lure such as the Super Strike Darter, Bomber, Rebel, or Red Fin, and many times will entice a fish to strike when the lure will not. These lures imitate sand eels, a major baitfish along the coast. The heavy duty, bentto-the-side SS hooks used significantly increase hook-ups and landings. Item No. LUSC1 Price: $4.89

PRE-RIGGED SURFCASTER DROPPERS We have pre-rigged our feathered teasers for bay and surf applications. 30# test mono for bay and 50# test mono for surf. Comes with small upper swivel and lower plug snap. Available in four colors. No other teaser works as well. Item No. LUSCIRS LUSCIRB

SAVAGE GEAR LURES SALTWATER SANDEEL ———————————— This stunning and unique lure is a supernatural sandeel imitation. The Sandeel is the favorite snack of many predators.

Top quality Japanese carbon steel saltwater grade hooks, to withstand brutal attacks and land big predators. Excellent Cod, Sea Bass, Pollock, Coalfish and Halibut lure. Package contains 2 bodies and 1 Head.

SAVAGE GEAR SANDEEL SLUGS ————————————————————————————— In their effort to develop a program for saltwater lure fishing, Savage Gear designed a series of ultra realistic sandeel slugs that have a solid front body and a hollow tail section that makes the LB lure float. The solid front body, makes a perfect hook hold. The hollow body collapses when the fish engulfs it which ensures a better hookup rate. The lure can be fished on an offset hook, on a weedless rig tuned with weight to have any sink rate desired, or it can be fished cut off behind the eyes, on our sandeel jig heads, to make the most amazing darting action. The lure is also great for drop shot and vertical jigging. Brilliant details and swimming action. Excellent for Cod, Striped Bass, Caligo Bass, Snook and even smaller Halibut. Also superior for small- and large mouth bass. Item No. SVGSS5 SVGSS6 SVGSS8

MONTAUK ROCKS - A MOVIE BY RICHARD SIBERRY Five years in the making, at a cost of one drowned camera, one almost drowned cameraman, one blown transmission and two broken ribs, feature documentary “Montauk Rocks” is now available on DVD. To many, the east end of New Yorks’ Long Island is simply the legendary summer home of the worlds’ elite, and those who aspire to be. As summer draws to a close however, and both the leaves and the mercury start to fall, those who came east to be seen are replaced by the legions who come to disappear into the night, and into the rocks, in pursuit of a trophy striped bass, and an even bigger fish tale. Richard Siberry’s directorial debut, “Montauk Rocks” is a wild ride, an immersive experience in Montauk’s legendary fall run fishery. The unique personalities who helped Montauk become the undisputed “Surfcasting Capital of the World” give insight into what makes it such a special place. Including a 5.1 surround sound audio track, this is more than just a fishing movie. Shot entirely on location in Montauk and New York City, Montauk Rocks speaks to the adventurer in all of us, and lets us know that the greatest adventures can sometimes be right in our own back yard.
