Delivery & Shipping

Do you offer free shipping?

We offer free domestic shipping on most orders over $150 subtotal. This excludes oversized and bulky items such as rods, blanks, gaffs, some tackle boxes, lobster nets, landing nets and other large items. Any 1 piece rod over 7'10" in length often incurs the biggest oversize fees charged by domestic shipping companies although we do have lower rates via other carriers on the West Coast. Any additional shipping fees will be automatically calculated at checkout before any billing is done.

What countries do you ship to?

We currently ship products within the US and to almost every country in the world, covering all available destination via UPS and DHL. International shipping times depend on the products and destination. Shipping rates are automatically calculated at checkout, for most countries we also collect Duties and Taxes and prepay them so you do not have to deal with the carrier or customs.

How long will it take to get my order?

Standard shipping can take 3-8 business days depending on location and order volume. If you have requested spooling on your reel or rigging on your lures then it could take an additional day or two. Next day & 2 day shipping is available on most domestic orders (for an additional charge). Orders placed after 12pm Pacific Standard Time will be processed the next business day.

What carriers do you ship with?

We work with UPS, FedEx, US Postal Service, GLS and DHL. When your order qualifies for free shipping or has a rod that qualifies for discounted shipping we reserve the right to choose which carrier it is sent with, otherwise you can pick the service you want. UPS Ground ranges from 1 to 7 day delivery, USPS Priority Mail is typically 1-3 days but is not a guaranteed express service, and USPS Ground Advantage takes roughly 3-7 business days. Longer rods are generally sent via GLS unless otherwise specified, this service ranges from 1 - 10 days.

Prop 65 Warning ⚠

A gaff you can hold at the ready all day. AFTCO's Whip Gaff runs a carbon fiber shaft, so the whole tool comes in under a pound — light enough that you're not fighting it on a long drift, stiff and strong enough to bury the hook when a fish finally shows.

The hook is AFTCO's proven corrosion-resistant stainless steel, set with the same manufacturing process they use across their gaff line so it won't twist loose or pull out under a hard, loaded stick. A rubber gimbal on the butt is the detail that earns its keep: drop the gaff into a rod holder and it won't spin, so the hook stays oriented and ready to grab. High-grip shrink-tube grips keep your hands locked on when everything's wet.

Which hook size

Both 6-foot models share the same shaft, gimbal, and grips — only the hook changes. The 2" × 5/16" is the lighter-duty pick for inshore and mid-size fish; the 3" × 3/8" opens a wider throat and heavier wire for bigger pelagics.

Key features

  • Carbon fiber shaft — lightweight, durable, and rigid under load
  • Stainless-steel hook — corrosion-resistant and built not to twist or pull out under a loaded stick
  • Rubber gimbal butt — sits in a rod holder without spinning
  • Shrink-tube grips — non-slip hold, wet or dry

Specifications: Carbon fiber shaft, corrosion-resistant stainless-steel hook, rubber gimbal butt, high-grip shrink-tube grips. Complete gaff weighs under 1 lb.
