For extra pulling leverage when using heavy spinning tackle on gamefish, AFTCO has released the Spin-Strap. It is designed to wrap around the foregrip of a spinning rod, ahead of the reel, then attach to an AFTCO Maxforce II shoulder harness using the sewn in “D” rings.
A small section of “tacky” material helps to grab the foregrip to prevent slippage. The Spin Strap can also be used behind an overhead reel that doesn’t have harness lugs.
The AFTCO Shoulder Harness is the perfect choice for stand-up battles when using lighter tackle applications. The lycra® polyester covered bio-foam shoulder and back-band padding connected with ventilated mesh distribute the load comfortably across the back of the angler, and allow the shoulders and upper body to carry the load during extended light to medium-tackle fights with stubborn gamefish.
The liner is made from synthetic terry cloth, which not only wicks moisture, but has enough “tooth” to keep the harness from slipping around and chafing. Included is a mesh bag with grommets for rinsing the fishing shoulder harness with fresh water and for easy storage. Otherwise, the AFTCO Shoulder Harness is completely synthetic and machine washable. One size fits most.
