Product Description
Calcutta Bamboo Gaffs are the top choice for serious offshore anglers. Gaining fame from commercial tuna fisherman who would use long calcutta bamboo "jack" or "lift" poles to hoist large tuna over their heads into their fishing vessel because of its lightweight, strong, and flexible properties. Due to its superior qualities over aluminum, fiberglass, and other types of wood, calcutta bamboo is the material of choice of gaffs in the offshore fishing industry. Traditionally popular out of the Southern California and Baja Mexico fisheries, calcutta bamboo gaffs have made traction worldwide for being the "go-to" for a professional and traditionally styled gaff.
