Gerber GE31003299 New Defender - Large Fishing
Tether
Overview
The Defender Tether offers a carabiner designed to fit on-finger for
intuitive control and a patented line vise on each side for secure tension
relief. Line is protected by an override lock-out system, and the tool is easily
carried on straps, belts, or waders w/ a wide-body flexible clip.
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.
