SUPERBARSFAR SUPERIOR TO ORDINARY METAL BARS

Talk is cheap. Here are some of the reasons why our composite bars are better than metal bars...

SuperBars are so flexible thatyou can actually tie them in a knot and then return them to their original fishingposition. They impart lifelike action to our bars that cant be remotely approached by old fashioned metal ones. Add

this onderful flexibility to the fact that they ill not kink or break durin! normal fishin! conditions and handlin! andyou already have a vastly superior spreaderbar. "e !uarantee that the bar ill not break hen fished ith and illreplace any broken bar for free. #n over telve years of sellin!SUPERBARS e have never even seen a broken bar$ let

alone replaced one.SUPERBARS

not only dont kink$ corrode$ or rust$ they are incredibly tan!le%free. "hen it comes tonot tan!lin!$ no metal spreaderbar made anyone anyhere can remotely compare to a SUPERBAR.

&nlike ordinary spreaderbars$ SuperBars have almost no metal components to 'am$ rust$ corrode$ break$ tan!le or ei!hour bars don and impede their performance.

ur bar stays out of the ater because its li!ht ei!ht and diameter of causes it to act like an airfoil$ or in! hentrolled. etal bars are too thin$ yet heavy$ to be affected by the airfoil that they create$ so they di! in and run bad.

RIGGED TO STAND UP TO HUGE FISHOur unique composite centerpiece is produced for us on our tooling. Look closely and you will see that other than passing

alongside it, the leader has nothing to do with and does not stress or affect the bar in any way. And there are no potential

weak links such as connections or swivels between the top and the end of the leader, making it as strong as it possibly can

be and much less prone to breakage or doing damage to the bar itself than other bars. e rig SUPERBARSso that they are

LITTLE BARS FOR BIG FISH

!amefish of all kinds, but especially all members of the tuna family and dolphin"dorado spend a great deal of time feeding

on small#to# tiny bait $ far more than most fishermen reali%e because they are trolling lures that are too big. The reason

big fish crave little bait is simple and natural and is in fact, the same one that e&plains why the biggest of the whales eat

nothing but' small fin and other forms of tiny bait have a much higher protein#to#body weight ratio than larger fin bait.The latter have much higher fat#to#body weight ratios and fat is not a desirable building or energy block for fish. (o,

when the fish have a choice, they instinctively choose the small, protein#rich fodder over the bigger stuff, which in most

cases is also feeding on the tiny bait too, and for the same reason. Troll lures that are too bi! durin! these common timesand you are not !oin! to catch any fish$ or 'ust a fe. $OU %UST %T&' T' 'T&' () $OU #NT TO &T&')(S'! *URN T'(S )&T (NTO $OUR %%OR$ N" ++,$ (T TO -R$ )(S'(NG TR(+ N" $OU #(,,&T&' ',,U- ,OT %OR )(S'!!

THIS TINY SI%E THING CREATES A HUGE PROBLEM FOR THE AVERAGE FISHERMAN

)lain and simple, that problem is matching the many tiny hatches with lures. *ost fishermen don+t even carrysinglelures small enough to interest fish %eroed in on tiny bait in the first place. And in fact, it is almost impossible for gamefish

to even spot single tiny lures in the typical trolling spread, so even if anglers troll some tiny, single baits, the odds are that

no fish will see and hit them. Gamefish dont look for indi/idual little 0aits1 they look for schools or pods of them!

NEW! NOT'RANSWER TO &THE LITTLE BAIT BLUES', SUPERFRYBARS

This is the deluxe MEATBALLSUPERFRYBAR teaser pattern. The center leader on this bar and all other *ryBars is+,,- test because B# *#S/ hit it. The color selection is on the ri!ht..

Actual si0e *ry S1uid

Hopefully, you can imagine how terrific this little bar looks when trolled and how it represents a highly visible pod of-T/ tiny baits as opposed to 0ust one to attract and catch fish. And that is e&actly what happens, over and over again

for sharp trollers ho are ready ith the only lures that ill catch piles of fish on those many tiny bait days. 1eady to fishall the way up to 234 gear, these little bars are also absolutely perfect for light tackle fans who want the power of

spreaderbars in their corner. FRYBARS are also priceless when it comes to making bait such as mackerel, skip0acks,

(paniards, sierra and small tunas. (quash down the hook barbs and use small chasebaits when making bait with

The SPORTBOAT AND SKIFF BAR

The + 23SPORTBOAT AND SKIFF BAR pattern

*olloed by an armed chasebait. This basic confi!uration is almost the same on the LITTLEandSPORTBOAT

AND SKIFF BARS.. Any si0e chasebait can be use$ dependin! on hat is bein! fished for. A killer ahoobar$ its chasebait must be on ire.


5/37

The SPORTBOAT AND SKIFF BAR was developed by an actual 5alifornia sportboat and charter captain, 5aptain

6ob *elville. As a charterboat captain who has fished (uper6ars for thirteen years now, 6ob knew how effective they are

and trolls nothing but bars when he is charter fishing. 5alifornia sportboats after tuna, dorado and wahoo troll four or five

anglers across the stern until they get hooked up and then they chum them up with live bait. 6ob knew that the bars

would be superior to single lures on sportboats too, but as a sportboat captain 75alifornian for what others call partyboats8

6ob knew that the crews and customers would refuse to use any kind of spreaderbar because of their universal reputation

for tangling and the fact that, even though he knew that ours did not tangle, they LOO9 like they will. And so 6ob took

everything that he knew about sportboat fishing and bars and came up with the perfect (uper6ar for it $ theSPORTBOAT BAR.

The overall leader length not only produces a great running bar, it is 0ust the right length for hooking the chasebait hook

into a harness lug with the leader and squids hugging the bar, so they are out of the way when the rod is racked up. The

upper leader is short for easy handling, deployment and gaffing. This special little bar runs great medium, short and long

and at speeds from si& to over ten knots 7wire leader on chasebaits in wahoo country...and wahoo LO: spreaderbars, by#

the#way8. 6uilt way sportboat tough, you can fish the SPORTBOAT AND SKIFF BARon the lightest gear, right on up

to 234 in complete confidence.

DOUBLE DUTY TOO*

*eaning that even though we call this, a ;SPORTBOAT BAR ;, it is 0ust as effective on private boats and it is dynamite

for traveling fishermen. Heck, they are so small and compact, you could put a half do%en of them in your shaving kit< -f

you are 5abo#bound and you don+t take either some of our other or at least some SPORTBOATAND SKIFFbars with you

, you are forgetting that SuperBars ere created and tested there for literally thousands of days. /ot having bars on a trip

to the 6a0a would be one big mistake, (enior< And if you are panga fishing and you don+t have them you are missing aH=! bet ?@ or B@

BIG CHASEBAITS AND TINY BARS #'T &O%*(NT(ON!Cust because the teasers on these bars are small doesn+t mean that you can+t turn them into killer big fish catchers when the

fish are on big bait. Cust snap off the small chasebait and snap another, bigger one on and you are ready for everything, all

the way up to blue marlin or huge tunas. That+s the kind of versatility and economy that you will not get from any other

BY POPULAR DEMAND, INTRODUCINGGRN"%ONS,OUR VERSION OF THE GREEN MACHINE

*any of our customers who have fallen in love with our DT#EE composite (uper6ars have repeatedly asked us to makethe above. ell, here are our versions, THE BIG GRN"%ONSand THE LITTLE GRN"%ONS.

Telve and nine inch"%ONS.-nvented and manufactured by (evenstrand 5ompany in 5alifornia and called ;The !reen *achine@, this type ofwonderful fish catcher is only popular on the east coast of the =.(. -t isn+t'ustpopular in the east, it isimmenselyso.(ome sharp west coasters and fishermen from other areas are beginning to discover how deadly they truly are 7a ma0or

*e&ican tuna tournament has been won twice bait and sitch fishin! with L+ GRN"%ON bars, but of course, noone admits it8. The twelve inch bar is the most popular back east and there are those who will tell you that si%e is all you

need, but we absolutely don+t agree with that $ there are many times when the F inch model will outfish the bigger one.

"%ONSON SUPERBARS VERSUS OLD FASHIONED METAL BARS NO &ONTST!;*achine#type@ lures are very light and have very little water resistance due to their streamlined shape and lack of action.

This presents problems when they are rigged on ordinary metal bars that are heavy and more importantly, that cut through


7/37

the air, instead of creating an airfoil effect that causes the bar to ;float@ over the surface of the water, like SUPERBARS do6ecause of this, a metal ;!reen@ bar can only be trolled from certain positions and at certain speeds in order to keep the

bar itself out of the water. /ot so with a SUPERBAR!. )ut simply, GRN"%ONS run great off light, fle&ible

SUPERBARSand you can fish them anywhere in the pattern and at a wide variety of speeds. Gou+ll love how they run andyou+ll love our prices, too>+ F...

Gou have found tuna, a lot of them. Gou ran a mi&ed si%e spread of bars right away, caught a fish, pumped his stomach

out with the washdown hose and saw that they were eating tiny baits. Gou are a sharpie and put of a monochromaticspread of little bars and you are cleaning house on small#to#medium school tunas and even a skip0ack or two. This is

today+s typical mi&ed si%e school of tunas $ bands of purse seine net survivors that have 0oined together in what used to be

a rarity, a school of tunas running from small ones, to some very big guys.

Gou haven+t been here. -+m along today, but -+ve been down below sleeping since before this bite started 7yeah, right8. -

finally stumble out into the pit and see that you have done a very good 0ob of analy%ing what is going on and set up yourspread to take advantage of it. - ask you if you have seen any big fish among the feeders and you tell me yes, you have

seen several really big yellowfin busting bait among the little and school fish, but you haven+t gotten one to bite yet.;Hmmm@, - say and ask if you would mind if - put one of my Accurate R3+s out on a long rigger. Gou say, ;of course not@

and before you can ask me anything else, -+ve grabbed the outfit and am attaching a small spreaderbar with what - tell you

is a P3@ squid chasing EQ@ squids. - don+t say anything until - have that bar out on a long rigger.

Gou ask me why -+m violating the *atch the Hatch 1ule and - tell you that - am not. -nstead, - am checking to see if the

6ig 6ait"6ig ish 1ule is on and if any of the big tunas are doing what - suspect they are doing, and that is feeding on the

small tunas when they come up and not the same little bait as the smaller fish. ;There are almost always a few big

cannibals in today+s mi&ed si%e tuna schools, but there usually aren+t many, so fishing 0ust for them and ignoring all ofthese other tunas would be silly $ especially if you were a charter. 6ut it+s worth it to put one big predator bar out, 0ust to

pick up a toad or two if they are around during the bite. )lus, we all know that blue marlin love eating yellowfin and

skip0ack, so the big bar will get them too, if they are around.

EXTRA PRO RIGGED CHASEBAITS

...FROM BIG,TO TINY$ou 7ill recei/e nothing 0ut the /ery 0est pro rigging1 much of it de/eloped 0y us1 7hen you 0uy our lures.

This is red again with a few words about our rigging. - take great pride in the quality of the components and the true

professional rigging of everything that we make, right down to the rigging of our chasebaits $ an afterthought for many ofthe so#called ;bar manufacturers@ out there. Our rigging is world#class and nothing less. Kuality and professionalism

show in what might seem to some to be the little details involved in the construction and rigging of a bar or lure. As far as

we are concerned, there is no such thing as an ;unimportant detail@ when it comes to rigging lures for ourselves or for our

you. Cust take a look at the chasebait rigging on whatever bars you are buying and compare it to ours. The difference ishuge, rightJ

The truth is, there are a lot of rank amateurs out there selling bars who have little or no knowledge of the art of

professional rigging 7and it is an art and their lack of knowledge of it shows8 in the first place and insufficient respect for

their customers and the fish to rig like we do in the second. Our chasebaits are probably rigged better and with higher

quality components than any fancy marlin lure that you are using now, no matter who rigged it or how much you paid tohave it ;)ro 1igged@. Our wide selection of )ro 1igged chasebaits follows. They are broken down by (uper6ar type.

As always when it comes to matching the hatch, if the fish are on big prey and you aren+t trolling 6-! artificials, youprobably aren+t going to get a bite. *ost fishermen don+t reali%e it, but this is why live or dead bait sometimes outfishes

lures. #t isnt that natural baits are better than lures 8 it is that natural baits like small yellofin$ skip'ack and bi! s1uidare much bi!!er than the lures most people troll and the natural baits represent the si0e prey the bi! marlin or hatever

are feedin! on much more so than lures that 'ust arent bi! enou!h. /ow think about the biggest lures that you troll.

Are your lures this bi!: "ell bet that they arent and that means you are missin! out on some bi! fish.

.DO $OU MATCH THE HATCH WHEN BIG BAITS ARE WHAT THEY ARE EATING

-f you do, you are one in a million. A nice, fat, twenty inch long squid like that one on the left represents a si%e squid or

baitfish that+s the kind of big meal that large si%ed game fish of all kinds will fall all over. =nless you are trolling huge

teasers with hooks in them, - doubt that your biggest lures even come close to a big squid si%e#wise. Start runnin! barsith the monster s1uids on them and you ill be blon aay by the numbers of bi! fish of all kinds that you ill be!incatchin!. -f you would like to try what - have found to be e&ceptional big fish catchers, run a couple of our bars with nineinch squids being chased by a twenty or a fifteen inch squid chasebait. -f you think that big blue or black marlin won+t go

insane when they see that pod of nine inch squid being pursued hot and heavy by a fifteen or twenty inch predator fish the

si%e of what they have been eating, don+t try this. 6ut if you see the simple logic and understand the competitive instincts

and prey drives of bigger game fish, do yourself a huge favor and get and run some of these bars. 7-f you are in wahoo

country be sure to rig the chasebaits on wire. 6ig gator wahoo go nutsover big bars

UNRIGGEDSUPERBARSach bar comes with the ends pre#drilled and with an appropriate si%e blue press#fit center piece of composite material for

the bar and the leader to run thru. The leader material, swages, egg sinkers, snap, hook, chafing gear, rigging beads, etc.are up to the rigger to get on his own.

THE PRESS FIT BLUE CENTER PIECE

The way that this part is connected to the (uper6ar is unique and practical. -t isn+t 0ust a way for the leader to run

;through@ 7actually ;by@8 the bar and not interfering with the structural integrity of the bar itself it is also an intentional

design for protecting leaders from breakage if the bar is sub0ected to enormous stress. This can happen when one tuna is

hooked up and another grabs a wing teaser and takes off in a different direction with it. -f that happens the center piece is

designed to slide along the bar, which reduces the stress and keeps a leader from breaking. The center piece will not slideoff of the bar completely because the wing leader loops at the ends keep it from doing so. -t takes great pressure to move.

RE-CENTERING THE CENTER PIECE

1e#centering a center piece that has slid is a simple matter, but that is not as good as it sounds. Again, it is a pressure fit

which means the friction is the ;glue@ that holds the center piece in position. -t is a very tight fit and the center piece is

hard to move. -f you re#center immediately after removing the bar from the water it will still be wet and it is the water on

the bar that makes is quite easy to re#center the piece. -t is better to allow the bar a few moments to dry or to wipe it down

with a dry cloth before re#centering it. The center piece will then be more difficult to center, but this is good because thedry bar surface creates friction and heat when you slide it and then the bar and center piece cool off when in place. The

center piece material shrinks as it cools much moreso than the bar does and this results in another tight fit to keep the

center piece in place. A shifted center piece is actually quite rare, but you do need to know why it happens and what to do

about it if it does, which is the reason for this short piece of advice.

HAYS STAINLESS BIG GAME HOOKS

THE INCREDIBLE NEW, STRONGEST EVER BIG GAMEHOOKS

They are the ;Hays Hooks@ designed by 5aptain 1oddy Hays, the legendary catcher of blue marlin and the same person

who developed the line of e&ceptional trolling lures under his ;Legend Lures@ banner. Hays hooks are made from

stainless steel and feature the deadly cone#shaped point preferred by many top professionals for e&ceptional penetration of

the mouths of tough#0awed fish like marlin and sharks. They are triple strong so that they won+t straighten or bend on a

really big fish and will hang in there when the biggest gorilla of a wireman decides to pull the hell out of a big marlin,

tuna or shark. Hays hooks will first be available on the larger chasebaits that are sold separately from the bars.

This is the actual si0e of an JJD,. #t is a stock$ ri!ht out of the box JJD, /ays /ook. "icked lookin!$ isnt it: "ell #m

here to tell you that its every bit as icked for hookin! and holdin! fish as it looks9

BEST OF ALL NO "%N" ,ONG,(NRS!ustad is by far the bi!!est supplier of hooks to the lon!line fleets$ hich makes them one of the lon!liners bi!!estallies. That fact has made me cringe every time that - have bought or recommended their big game hooks, but there

simply has not been an alternative other than not fishing altogether, which is unacceptable of course, up until now.

1oddy+s hook manufacturer is located in Capan and that was one strike against him as far as - was concerned. That is

because - don+t want to support companies that sell longliners or that are in ma0or longline fish consumer countries, so

why am - e&cited about these hooksJ !ood question.

MEET A RESPONSIBLE APANESE HOOK MANUFACTURER

1oddy+s supplier recogni%es where the longliners, especially the ones from his own country are taking the fish that he too

relies on for his livelihood. He refuses to sell them. That+s enough to eliminate ;strike one@ as far as -+m concerned and

that position 7he doesn+t want his name spread around because his position could cause problems for him with his

ANOTHER LONGLINE SUPPLIER GETS A LONG DESERVED AMERICAN PUNCH IN THE MOUTH*

- hope that you will 0oin me in replacing every single big game hook that you use with ;Longliner clean@ Hays big game

hooks. /ot because - will sell more hooks $ heck, we+ll never sell enough hooks to make a dent in our bottom line no
