Our 8′ Proseries stringer is a streamline version of our original 12′ stringer with a smaller float meaning less bulk when packing and carrying the stringer. It is a great option for kayakers as this will not tangle in most rudders and drafts better behind the kayaks. The smaller float will still stay connected like our original stringer but is less noticeable if you’re worried about potlickers, and pulls easier in the kayak when you string a fish.(Note the small float will not support the weight of the stringer)
