{"product_id":"aftco-carbon-fiber-whip-gaff","title":"AFTCO Carbon Fiber Whip Gaff","description":"\u003cp\u003eA 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4 style=\"font-size:18px;font-weight:600;margin:1.4em 0 0.3em;\"\u003eWhich hook size\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth 6-foot models share the same shaft, gimbal, and grips — only the hook changes.
