AFTCO guides and tip-tops are designed and built to provide consistently flawless performance over a lifetime of fishing. The bearings, pins, rollers, screws, etc we produce today, while continually undergoing improvement in features and materials, are designed to fit perfectly into their proper AFTCO guide or tip-top, regardless of its age.
AFTCO Flat Line Clips put lines trolled from the stern of the boat into the water at a lower angle to minimize tangling and keep your lures below the surface for better action and when a fish strikes, you'll know at the instant the clip snaps open to release the line. The Flat Line Clip is fitted with a 135-lb. coated stainless steel cable and a heavy duty snap swivel.

Aftco Unibutts® are the combination handle-reel seat that revolutionized trolling rod butts. Unibutt® fishing rod butts are formed from the finest marine alloy using AFTCO's unique "swaging" process, the ONE-PIECE Unibutt® aluminum fishing rod butt and reel seat is "unitized" for maximum strength and minimum weight. The aligning pin-plug, gimbal and fixed hood are locked in permanent alignment so that the gimbal, reel and rod guides always line up perfectly. The ferrules are precision-machined to ensure complete interchangeability of rod tip sections, and an "O" Ring on the ferrule prevents corrosion between ferrule and reel seat. A Teflon® ring inside the collet nut assures a snug fit, prevents galling, and allows easy removal of the nut. Stronger, lighter and simpler, AFTCO Unibutts® are available in Silver, Black, Black/Gold, Black/Silver, Silver/Gold, Black/Shimano® Gold anodized finishes.
