Gerber Gear Defender – Freshwater Fishing Retractable Tether for Fishing, Camping & Hunting Gear – Large, Flat Sage
Description
The angler who is hiking in by dense trail, wading into a rushing current, or
battling a kayak for that elusive catch demands more from their gear – it has
to be multi-functional and worth its weight. A fishing tether ultimately has
one job – to secure gear – but if that job is done right it can also offer
peace of mind and added functionality. Both the large and compact defender
tethers were designed with control in mind, anchored by the tip control
carabiner that both versions boast. This carabiner slips on finger to absorb
the tension of the line and allow for ease of use when operating the tethered
tool. The large defender was built to be a workhorse, housing a 48” Dyneema
cable that has the capacity to handle Bulkier tools. A wide body retention
clip ensures that the tether isn’t going anywhere, even when working through
dense brush or slippery conditions. The integrated lanyard hole provides
additional carrying options – add a carabiner or tether ring to secure it to a
pack or waders. The large defender was built with a patented side release
Lock, when engaged the tethered tool will Lock in place. If the tethered tool
does get snagged on a branch or dropped downstream, an override feature kicks
in to protect the tether from damage. Dual line vises set up shop on each side
of the mouth, releasing tension in a matter of seconds. Gerber tools are built
to last a lifetime. To ensure optimal performance, rinse your tool with fresh
water and dry thoroughly with a clean towel. Apply oil to hinges and moving
parts on a regular basis.
