Thank you for visiting our Weekly Specials!
Early update, heading out for
our Exploratory Charter aboard the Eclipse today (Friday).
This week we're
pleased to introduce Phenix Baits new Vengeance Weedless Kelp Jigs.
These are the best lures of their type, fact is Blake here just
landed a very nice halibut this morning fishing the surf in LB using
one of 'em. So, we'll intro the new lures, as well as related
swimbaits from Big Hammer, Metal Swimmers, and Soft Tako lures for
the bass and halibut inshore fishermen...and offshore anglers. Reel
deals continue with a very nice combo offer on the reels showcased
this week - get an additional $50 off on a matching rod. And, there
are a few other products worthy of your consideration. We
hope to be your favorite place to
grab sportfishing gear by providing sound
advice, sharp prices and excellent service.
Remember that the Weekly Specials are
updated Sundays, so check back weekly...that's
why they're called Weekly Specials!
Thanks for visiting CharkBait!

Just what we like to see, some
innovative fellows who like to fish with creative minds occupied in
designing a better mousetrap...or fishing reel. I've been following
Release Reels now for 2 or three years prior to adding them to our
site & shops May of 2013. They finally have things together, and we're
very proud to bring their new gear to your attention. Expect this to
be the tip of the iceberg, there are more things planned... 100%
Designed, Machined and Assembled in Virginia, USA! Release Reels are designed for fishermen by fishermen - now that's
an old line, but very true with respect to these guys. Like some of
our other favorite firms such as Accurate, Tiburon and of course Avet,
these guys have a machining background and they took those skills, a
dream and turned their concept and applied creativity into creating a
new fishing tool for us.
Release SG (small game) Reels
Release
reels are unique, showing the innovative
spirit of their designers and their attention
to quality. Their first and smallest reel is
the SG. This little powerhouse packs a punch
turning 30 pounds of drag! It's certainly made
for fishing the new super braided lines,
holding 500 yards of 50# or 400 yds of 60-65#
braid. Some will go 300 yds of 50 or 60 and
top off with a topshot of 100 yds or more, a
nice configuration where a lot of casting is
called for. Their drag element is made from carbon fiber, "wet" drag for smoothness of
operation. The reels feature BOCA BEARINGS,
ceramic bearings with rubber seals on the
spool and stainless bearings with stainless
steel shields for the rest of the 7 bearings
used on these fine reels. Oh, I should note
that these are high quality bearings ABEC 5
class, not your basic cheap Chinese bearings
that are prone to failure. The reels are light
in weight, coming in at 13.5 ounces (12 oz w/o
arm), and they feature quick but powerful 6:1
gearing.
There are some unique
characteristics present on these reels well
worth drawing your attention to before
purchase, so you'll understand their approach.
First off, if you are a spool spinner you will
note that the reels spool does not demonstrate
long freespool when you first break it out of
the box. That's not a function of crappy
bearings or design, that's a function of the
lubrication within the bearings. Within a VERY
short time you'll note that these things spin
like tops, and keep on spinning. They must be
broken in, some of the lubrication will spread
and ease out, allowing better freespool. I'm
sure Alan Tani will offer an immediate fix for
this should it be something someone would
want, or you can simply clean the bearing of
some of the
lubrication. For my taste, I'll just fish the
reel and allow nature to take it's course.
With the bearings supplied, trust that the
reel will spin very well and cast
exceptionally. There are some nice machining
features you'll note, the frame for instance
is "bowed" meaning there's more clearance
should you not level your line properly in the
excitement of reeling in a good fish. The
reels come with a reel clamp that features a
contoured hook keeper as you can see in the
image above (or lanyard ring). The reel foot
is uniquely wonderful in my opinion, it's very
much knurled/contoured - not a flat piece of
aluminum - so it provides a much better fit on
most rods as it contours around the reel seat
smoothly. The handle is also something quite
special, offering great power and feel.
The
contoured ergonomic handle is available on the
right hand retrieve reels. For their lefty you
get a Magnum Ball style handle, which is also
darn trick. That's an option for the righty
reel. However the soft grip contoured handle
is NOT an option for the lefty reels. You'll
also note that the reel does not appear to be
ported for water drainage. Well, that's not
quite so, actually the entire gear case
provides drainage without vacuum with adequate
clearance running it's entire length at the
base. You'll also notice that the preset has
click stops, detents. One thing you will also
notice is that the reels do NOT have a strike
and full position on their lever. This is
unique to Release, may or may not be present
in future generations. There's a logical
position where strike may routinely located
above a sideplate (nicely trimmed) for
repeatability, which would allow for a logical
strike and full position. However these
typical positions are not machined or
otherwise market. Frankly, I may elect not to
run with a typical strike position on my own
reel, one of the other fellows working here
suggested simply using a sticker. I'm thinking
there are a few ways to play this one, and
there's room for individual variance. The
gears are made from Stainless Steel, and they
too will wear and become even smoother over
time.
Release
reels carry a LIFETIME WARRANTY, that's
another unique feature in the fishing
industry. They will handle any fishing related
product failure for a $20 bill - to cover
return shipping and insurance. Product failure
is not an option.

Toro Tamer
Offshore Explorer
Boat Rods
NEW -
Light, Responsive, Quality Components & Power!
Toro Tamer Offshore
Explorer Boat Rods are exceptional in both quality
and value. The rods feature Fuji guides and reel
seat, graphite construction and moderate/fast
action - not a parabolic jigging rod, rather a rod
suitable for live bait and iron. This is
another of those projects that took a bit of time
to get right,
more than we'd have liked. We really hoped we
could have had these in stock for our local summer
season in 2012, but with something like this we're happy
to see 'em come in whenever they make it. These
rods share actions similar to Calstar's Grafighter
series, produced offshore by one of the better
factories in Asia - a quality factory producing
rods for two very well known USA firms. They are quality produced, with quality
components, by a very innovative rod specialty
firm.
We stayed with quality Fuji components, very good
guides with inserts to deal with the more modern braided lines
successfully - long term. The rods feature Fuji reel seats and nice
aluminum gimbals for the two heavier models. There are three models
in the line, a 12-20# rod that's very suitable for fishing 15-20#
line, a 20-40# stick that's ideal for fishing 30#, and a 30-50#
model that's dialed in for 40#. They all pull very well, and are
very light in the hands. You will like the rods, and you won't find
a better value better value for anywhere near their price. These
rods carry a one year replacement warranty for manufacturer's defect
- shipping not included. If you break your rod and the break is not
a warranty issue, then there is a 50% replacement cost similar to
Seeker and Calstar. I've now been fishing these rods hard on all of
our charters and any other chance I get. They've been through a lot,
and mine have performed very, very well.

Penn's
Fathom Star Drag reels are a new series of full metal bodied reels
that are made for years of hard use, and made to fish very
well by all measures. The reels have GREAT freespool
performance, excellent drags, and they're built Penn
tough. When the levelwind Fathom reels first arrived last
year, all they guys here were beating up the Penn rep
asking why the heck Penn didn't come out with a
non-levelwind version of the reels. They were some of the
nicest levelwinds ever made, offered some things Daiwa
could not achieve with their Saltist series. We really
felt that a non-levelwind Fathom would give the Saltist
and the Avet's some competition. Well, I guess Penn was
listening because they introduced this new reel at ICAST
and the response told them that they indeed were on the
right track. The new Penn Fathom series star drag reels
are excellent fishing instruments!

From the little 12 to the large 40
size fathom, all represent solid reels. The favorite of the
guys here tends to run towards the narrow 25N, a bit taller
than the 12/15 size and narrower than the 30. Very nice size
for casting, with 50# Spectra suggested for backing, then
you've got room for close to 100 yards of 30# on top.
Wonderful for most casting work, and the reel will find it's
home on plenty of jig-sticks rigged up just that way. Penn has a winner on their hands.

Without
doubt, Avet's excellent value
machined aluminum lever drag
reels have set the standard for
performance and value since they
came on the market. We're proud
to have been part of their
success, being Avet's largest
dealer worldwide since their
beginning 10 years ago. We value
that relationship, and
appreciate what they've
accomplished in terms of
building some excellent reels
that are affordably priced. This
weeks special takes the value
inherent with an Avet and builds
upon that quality. We offer free
braided line as well as a
wonderful deal on a matching rod
that's sure to please. The rods
are both light and powerful
featuring graphite blanks, Fuji
components and they're made for
casting - something the Avet's
do quite well. The braid
featured is some of the best on
the market, and given it's thin
diameter you'll be able to
maximize your line capacity to
truly target big fish on a small
reel.
There's one
point we need to make on the
frontside - Avet now produces
OVER 700 different models of
reels! They've kept adding
models and nothing has gone away
from the line. We maintain more
inventory than any dealer, 300K
or so of stock at any time! But,
these days that doesn't buy as
much back stock as it used to.
So, chances are that you will
have to suffer waiting a week or
so as stock catches up to
demand. Please understand that
you are essentially getting a
custom reel at a commercial
price, and we're sweetening that
offer with free shipping, a free
reel cover, free spooling and a
substantial discount on an
excellent rod. Demand will
outpace supply - that's a given
- and we will be playing
catch-up. So, understand that
you may end up waiting a week or
two for your order to be filled.
If that's not acceptable to you,
then we apologize but you'll
have to pay more somewhere
else...

Internet buzz about Avet's new magnetic cast control reels for good
reason, they work!
Phenix leadheads and
lures have been longtime favorites among both freshwater
and saltwater bass focused anglers. Their quality is
superb in large part because they actually make their own
jigs and do not farm out their production to other
factories for lowest cost production. Their quality is
superior, and they take time to produce their lures with
fantastic, long lived paint jobs using the best materials
possible. Their hooks are also top quality, and that pays
off big time in terms of long term use and horsing out big
fish from heavy cover. In 2013 Phenix expanded their line
with some new lures we've very excited to offer our
clients. Their new Weedless Vengeance Kelp Jigs are the
best we've seen, and their new small Football version Vengeance jigs are some wonderful lures for inshore
focused fishermen using lighter lines. Pictured above:

Weedless Kelp Jig with Skirt - Packaged one per box We stock these jigs in five sizes: 1 1/2, 1,
3/4, 1/2 and 3/8 ounces. The hook sizes run 4/0 for the
3/8 oz, 5/0 for the 1/2, 6/0 for 3/4 & 1 oz, and 7/0 for

There are no finer swimbaits made. Big Hammer designs the best,
and they've been the ones used by most of the guys who know what
they're doing inshore and offshore, the guys that know how to fish
and always seem to bet bit best use Big Hammer. Why? Could be that
big square tail, could be the color patterns - simply the best and
most varied on the market. That's why they've been the most
imitated.
We didn't always carry Big Hammer, but we
were pretty well "hammered" by our clients to bring 'em in...which
we did many years ago. Based on demand, effectiveness and BH's
ability to stay on top of product development they've been our
number one swimbait line since we began carrying them.
The Metal Swimmer is
another lure based upon an old favorite design of mine.
Years ago there was a lure marketed under the name Dymara.
This
lure was made in Europe, exported to Canada and then made
it's way into the USA. As a result the lure was pretty
expensive compared to the megabait product. But, it had a
unique and highly effective quality which helped it get bit.
There was a soft "S" shape curve to the lure which proved
very effective when fished on the drop. You could fish the
lure on the slide, but it's best effect was on the drop and
yoyo'd coming back up to the surface. I'd cast the lure out,
keep a feel for the drop of the jig, to tell if it had been
hammered, and then retrieved in a drop and crank fashion.
The lure got bit well for me, and a lot of other guys too.
Sadly, the lure stopped being imported, but I had a few left
in my tackle box...well actually only three and sacrificed
one for this project.
Features of the
CharkBait Metal Swimmer: 1. All lures are Triple Clear Coated for added
durability
2. All lures come with both MUSTAD Single and Treble
Hooks
3. All lures are rigged with a WELDED RING on the
nose and quality split ring on the rear
4. All lures have a luminescent/glow underside for
added effectiveness on a deeper drop
5. Our Swimmers have a soft "S" curve to them for a
bit of flutter on the drop

Double Deep Yellowtail
Coffin Nails - Clearance!
They are back, after a
five year absence! They're back, and they're better, but
they'll be going away again since we can't get
these made any longer unless we greatly increase
the production. We've hit a quota wall for
making these lures. So, it's time to move
off the product and clear out the stock.
We produced the Double Deep
Diver in
five different color
patterns, each a bread and butter color that's required for
different conditions in different destinations. While we
call 'em Yellowtail Coffin Nails, don't let that make you
think they are species dependent. They're not. They'll
take all sorts of game fish. Following bird activity,
surfacing fish, trolling these lures will generate some
attention and solid strikes. If the fish are holding deep,
then our Double Deep model is what's called for. Same if the
expectation is the larger grade fish and you don't want to
sort through the shorts.
Our Double
Deep model is 180 mm long and 90 gm (10" with bill, 7"
without, and 3.17 oz in weight). Our larger Double Deep
lures are thru wired for added strength and security. This model also features a two line
attachment points and under the bill there's a connecting
point to attach a sinker for even greater depth. You can use
a tear-drop style weight for this purpose. It's not
required, but if you need more depth here's a way to achieve
even greater it easily.
If you liked the old Yo-Zuri
DEEP Diver, which featured similar rigging
options, you will love this lure at our
regular price. However, now that we have
them on a super special offer this one's a
no brainer. For anyone trolling for fish,
yellowtail, tuna, barracuda, pretty much
anything, these lures will prove effective
and at these prices they are the best buy
we've posted in a deep diving lure.
CharkBait's SOFT Tako
Mid-Water
Soft Bodied Octopus
for Jigging and Cast/Retrieve use
Well,
here we go again with a unique lure sure to
bring joy to fishermen and fish on the deck!
We're happy to introduce our new Toro Tamer
SOFT TAKO lures just in time for the
summer season. We have these unique lures
produced in four sizes and five color
patterns. The lures are priced right, and they
will offer anglers something that fish haven't
seen much of, but something that's a tasty
treat for all species of fish, OCTOPUS!
How to fish 'em: First
thing, make use of some good scent like
Hot
Sauce, Uni-Butter, Pro Cure, Smelly Jelly. All
these things can make a difference in how long
the fish will accept an imitation bait and
they all are effective in this regard.
Consider how an octopus moves, and mimic that
action. There are times an octopus will slowly
creep along the bottom, and there are times
they are fired up and in flight moving pretty
darn quickly to get away from another
predator. So, in reality you can fish these
lures a few different ways. We experimented
fishing them as we would a knife jig
vertically and we also fished 'em as we would
a swim bait, and I have to say we got bit both
ways. If the water was cooler, we found
greater success fishing 'em slow along the
bottom, and that makes sense too. So, please
try different things, vary your presentation
and make use of a good scent or squid strip on
the lure. If you spend the time, you will be
rewarded!
The new lures are
available in some very attractive colors,
Orange, Purple Haze, DEEP Purple, White and
Chartreuse. The come in four weights, 24 gm
(.85 oz), 46 gm (1.6 oz), 85 gm (~3 oz)
and
110 gm (4 oz) weights, with lengths of 90,
110, 130 and 150 mm.
All lures feature a
double hook arrangement, with both single and
treble hooks rigged for sure hookups.
Got a quick report from one of the guys who
fished 'em the week they arrived. As you can
see, the calico bass inhaled the critter:
Its always a blast
talking to you at the shop John. Here are
those pics of my bass on the orange soft
Tako. Hopefully I will have more to send you
over this weekend. Ill be in later this week
to get some more of these awesome and unique
baits. Thanks again. -Andrew G.
These things
are catching calico bass like crazy guys, well
worth jumping on 'em!
Two new items from us, not necessarily
the most creative or revolutionary products we've ever come
up with, but nonetheless they are useful and they are a bit
different than what's available from others.
Our RodWraps are an upgrade from the
StickJackets we've carried for several years. We've made
ours a bit larger in
diameter so that they will accommodate larger saltwater
guides, even larger spinning guides. The StickJackets were
really made for freshwater use, sized accordingly but we
used their spinning models for our application. Now we've
got 'em made our way. We've reinforced the
top with a leatherette end piece and metal grommet which can
be used to hang rods, and we've increased the diameter to
allow your rods, even those using larger AFTCO wind-on
roller guides or larger size spinning guides to fit. The
Wraps are about 5 feet in length, will extend down the rod
into the handle material of most rods. They are not made to
cover the entire rod, only that portion it's designed to
protect - the blank, the finish, the guides.
These
wraps are all that I've been using now for the past few
years. I like the fact that I can use them for storage
protection, travel protection as well as leave 'em on my
rods on the boat. They are breathable and they don't absorb
moisture. So, they help me protect my rods when they're
bundled up once the fishing is over. On most long range
trips out of San Diego, you move your rods onto the boat and
off the boat all bundled up. They may stay that way
overnight on the boat as well. For a cloth sock, that's no
good. So, you can write off any protection of the rod. With
these things you do get that protection when you need it
most. I even leave them on my rods when I get home. I'll
spray off the rod wraps while still on the rod, loosening
any accumulated saltwater in the process. Then I'll take off
the wraps, clean the rods more thoroughly and allow them to
dry. Use of a cleaner like Penn's Rod and Reel cleaner for
that, and you've got things in great shape for your next
trip and your gear will stay in new condition.
The other product we have for rod
organization are our CharkWraps. These are great for
bundling your rods together for transport or storage. You
can secure up to a half dozen rods with these things. Nice
thing about ours verses some others, they are made from a
softer foam/rubber material so they'll never scratch up your
rods. Unlike some similar products I've seen, we made it a
point to include three different sizes (which makes sense
since you'll use all three at different positions on your
bundled rods from the tip to near the reel seat). So, you
get three straps, all with Velcro through their length to
handle most any size bundle of rods you'll be totting, from
2 to 6 or more rods.

As a means to reduce spam,
we change the above incoming email addresses regularly.
Please don't bother adding them to your address book.
We do apologize for any inconvenience this policy
creates. But, it's the only way we've found to post an email address
on-line and not receive so many
solicitations from some family member of a deceased "Nigerian"
leader trying to move great sums of $ out of the country...
CharkBait makes no guarantee on merchandise, product safety
or suitability beyond those claims offered by the respective manufacturers.
We only offer products that we believe in. CharkBait maintains a significant
inventory of the products we represent, that saves shipping time for our
clients, and proves our belief in the products we represent. We stock the
gear we sell, we don't depend upon a third party to handle your order.
Your order with CharkBait is given personal attention.
We do not provide any personal information regarding our
visitors and clients to anyone. That's our privacy policy. We do have banner
advertising on many pages. We are the host for that service, the ads
reside on our server. We do utilize "cookies" in order to increase user
friendliness and functionality of this site. Cookies are required for
building your "shopping cart." Bottom line, CharkBait respects our visitors
and clients.
We maintain the site daily, but please don't hold us liable
for tyyppooographical errors or price changes which are beyond our control.
All transactions are confirmed prior to shipment. All opinions
expressed are those of the author, you can take 'em or leave 'em.
Shoes and shirts are not required for service. We reserve the right to
refuse service to anyone.
I think that about covers it.
we
could have had these in stock for our local summer
season in 2012, but with something like this we're happy
to see 'em come in whenever they make it. These
rods share actions similar to Calstar's Grafighter
series, produced offshore by one of the better
factories in Asia - a quality factory producing
rods for two very well known USA firms. They are quality produced, with quality
components, by a very innovative rod specialty
firm.

Two new items from us, not necessarily
the most creative or revolutionary products we've ever come
up with, but nonetheless they are useful and they are a bit
different than what's available from others.
