DESCRIPTION

The Gemlux Bluewater Internal Carbon Fiber Center Rigger (Single) | 12' is the ultimate solution for offshore anglers demanding high-performance gear with hassle-free usability. Designed for serious fishing and sleek aesthetics, this internally rigged rigger delivers a snag-free, ultra-smooth halyard operation thanks to precision-engineered AFTCO stainless-steel rollers.

Built from 100% carbon fiber, this center rigger is lightweight yet incredibly strong, reducing whipping at high speeds while maintaining perfect line tension and placement. Whether you're trolling offshore or deploying teaser rigs, the internal routing design keeps your deck safe and clean, with no external lines to catch or tangle.

Setup is a breeze requiring no gluing, no complex tools, and no crew. A single angler can assemble or disassemble this patented design using just a screwdriver. The 12' collapsible length allows for easy transport and storage, while the UV-resistant high-gloss coating ensures your gear stays looking sharp season after season.
