Sea Striker SSP1BLK Planer Black Powder Coated Sz1

The PLANER takes your lure down deep without heavy sinkers. While in trolling position, the planer runs at 45¼ angle. When a fish is hooked, it returns to the surface. All sizes feature a rugged stainless steel blade and large brass ring to assure a clean trip. Sizes 1, 2, and 3 are packaged in bag with header. Suitable for pegboard or bulk display. Other sizes to be hung by ring or displayed bulk. Models 4 and 5 are also available braced. Deluxe planer is approximately 10″ long with a brace running across the bottom, tying the planer wire and blade together. This keeps your planer in tune and running straight.
