Reel Draggin' Tackle -Quality Saltwater Tackle, At the Righ Price

Reel Draggin’ Tackle™ "Signature Series" Spreader Bar Design The Center Block
	The centerpiece of the bar is our custom design, configured so that you fight the fish not the bar. It is cut from high density Poly and drilled in two directions. One direction for the bar to slide through and one for the leader line passage. The Ploy Block is drilled so that the bar and leader line never touch inside the block. Our design is better than a swivel crimped to the center of the bar, followed by crimping your main line and spreader bar center line in one of the ways you see at your local tackle shops. With the high quality light line we use (to generate more strikes) its important to eliminate as many potential failure points as possible. Our center Poly Block is free-spinning, allowing for more bar motion and flexibility. The center line goes directly through the center piece, so the angler fights the fish not the bar. This is a dramatic improvement over other rigging techniques available at your local tackle shops or retail centers. Reel Draggin' Tackle has incorporated a 200# hand line, 30 inches long forward of the bar. The line slides freely through the center block. When boating your fish, the leader man has a robust piece of mono to grab safely. Since the bar floats on this leader, it does not add to the total length of the spreader bar. Our center line is cut at 52 inches, with an offshore loop knot at the end to attach or remove your stinger of choice. This keeps the rig about a rod length long, allowing the angler to reel the rig to the tip of the rod, step to the center of the boat, and with the rod tip raised the fish will be well within the range of your gaff.

RDT Center Block

You are going to need something for the center of the bar. This is the conection point between the business end of the bar, and your main line to the rod/reel. You have lots of options here. This is a good look at the poly block we currently use. We'll discuss this more in the next few posts.
There are many ways to make your center point. We buy sheets of Marine Starboard and cut it down. It takes a bit of time, and may be a little more expensive than other methods, however the volume we deal in cuts the ultimate price down and more importantly, its the functionality.
The Poly Block we use provides a soft, smooth "tunnel" for the leader line to move through, without damaging the line. As you can see from the picture above, the bar and the line will not touch each other inside the block due to the location of the holes.
We run a 36" leader of 200# Momoi Blue Diamond line through the block. There is an Offshore knot at each end. One for the center line of the bar, and the other for the main line swivel.

The Spreader Bar will now "float" on 36" inches of leader. This helps reduce the amount of constant drag you get from other bars. Also, this rigging and the spring steel work together to produce more pulsing action as your bars are pulled through the water. This feature alone has lead to more hookups and is worth the extra effort.
