FISHSCALE GAFF 4ft Calcutta Bamboo Fish Gaff with Turkshead Knots – Lightweight, Durable & Stylish

The FISHSCALE GAFF Co. presents the exceptional Calcutta Bamboo Fish Gaff, designed specifically for serious offshore anglers. Renowned for its lightweight and strong properties, this gaff has gained popularity among commercial tuna fishermen who rely on long Calcutta bamboo ‘jack’ or ‘lift’ poles to hoist large tuna over their heads into their fishing vessels. This remarkable functionality is attributed to the unique characteristics of Calcutta bamboo, which surpass those of aluminum, fiberglass, and other types of wood.

Available in multiple styles and sizes, including the versatile 4-foot option, this gaff is authentically wrapped with a durable cord. Its traditional design features two beautifully crafted ‘TURKSHEAD’ sailor’s knots, showcasing the craftsmanship that goes into each piece. Every gaff is meticulously sanded smooth, followed by multiple coats of UV-treated flexible epoxy, ensuring a long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing finish.

One of the standout features of this gaff is its carbon steel gaff hook, which is coated with a baked-on protective finish. This not only prevents rust but also adds a touch of style to your gaff. Additionally, Calcutta bamboo possesses natural lightweight and buoyant properties, allowing this gaff to float, making it an excellent choice for fishing enthusiasts who need reliable gear on the water.

The popularity of Calcutta bamboo gaffs extends beyond the Southern California and Baja Mexico fisheries, as they have gained traction worldwide. Their superior qualities make them the preferred choice for professional anglers seeking a traditional and effective fishing tool. This gaff is not just a piece of equipment; it represents a legacy of craftsmanship and functionality that has stood the test of time.
