Kristal Fishing AFC-2 Hydrodynamic Downrigger (Squid Catcher)
The Kristal Fishing AFC-2 hydrodynamic downrigger is an essential tool for all fans of coastal trolling and cephalopod trolling. Also known as the Squid Catcher, this downrigger is designed specifically for low-speed fishing (1 to 1.5 knots), offering unsurpassed effectiveness in catching squid and cuttlefish, while also proving excellent for light trolling for mackerel, horse mackerel, bonito, and bluefish.
Thanks to its exclusive hydrodynamic design, the AFC-2 utilizes water resistance to bring your bait to the desired depth without the need for heavy weights on the line, ensuring a smooth and natural fishing action.
The secret of automatic surfacing (Reversal mechanism)
The real strength of the Kristal Fishing AFC-2 downrigger is its intelligent release system.
- During fishing: It maintains an angled-downward position, pushing the line into the depths.
- At the moment of a strike: When a fish or squid bites, the tension triggers the mechanism. The AFC-2 instantly reverses its hydrodynamic thrust and rises to the surface on its own. This allows you to fight the prey directly and without any resistance on the line, eliminating the risk of unhooking.
Why choose the Kristal Fishing AFC-2?
- Adjustable millimetric sensitivity: The package includes special elastic bands to adjust the release tension. You can calibrate it to activate even with the most timid squid bites.
- 5 depth adjustment holes: By moving the snap hook to the different upper holes, you modify the descent angle to reach different water depths.
- Perfect for multiple lines: Thanks to the precision of its trajectories, it allows you to lower multiple lines from the same boat without the risk of annoying tangles.
- Indestructible construction: Made of high-resistance technopolymer to last over time and resist salt corrosion.
Available versions:
- Invisible (Transparent): Perfect for daytime fishing and in crystal-clear waters, for maximum discretion.
- Black: Ideal for night trolling or in low-light conditions, to eliminate reflections.
