Aftco Fish Bat 47cm

AFTCO Fish Bat 47cm

The AFTCO Fish Bat 47cm is a premium-quality fish dispatch tool designed to quickly and humanely subdue your catch while improving onboard safety and preserving the quality of your fish. Trusted by recreational and professional anglers worldwide, this heavy-duty fish bat is built to withstand the harsh marine environment and deliver reliable performance trip after trip.

Constructed from moulded, glass-filled polypropylene, the AFTCO Fish Bat is exceptionally strong, corrosion-proof, and virtually unbreakable under normal fishing conditions. Unlike traditional wooden or metal bats, it won’t absorb water, rot, rust, or deteriorate after repeated exposure to saltwater, making it an ideal addition to any boat.

Its unique triangular profile prevents the bat from rolling around the deck while underway, reducing hazards on board and ensuring it’s always within easy reach when needed. The aggressive moulded non-slip grip provides excellent control even with wet or slimy hands, allowing you to dispatch fish safely and confidently in challenging conditions.

Measuring 47cm (19 inches) in length and weighing approximately 860g (1.3lb), the Fish Bat delivers the ideal combination of reach, weight, and striking power for handling a wide variety of fish species. A built-in braided safety lanyard helps prevent accidental loss overboard, while the integrated hanging hook makes storage simple by allowing the bat to be hung from a rail, ladder, or hook when not in use. If it does end up in the water, the Fish Bat is designed to float, making retrieval quick and easy.

Whether you’re targeting Snapper close to shore, landing Kingfish offshore, or chasing Tuna and other pelagic species, the AFTCO Fish Bat is an essential safety and fish-handling tool that belongs on every serious fishing boat.
