Garbolino Multigrip Open Deluxe Pole Support Bump Bar D25/D36

Garbolino Multigrip Open Deluxe Pole Support Bump Bar D25/D36

Experience the pinnacle of pole stability and angler comfort with the Garbolino Multigrip Open Deluxe Pole Support Bump Bar. At Gerry’s Fishing, we know that when you’re shipping out to 13, 14, or 16 meters, every ounce of weight matters. This deluxe bump bar is engineered to act as the perfect “third hand,” taking the strain off your arms and back while allowing for the surgical precision required to convert tiny “dinks” into solid hook-ups.

The “Deluxe” edition features a significantly enhanced, oversized high-density EVA foam. This isn’t just about comfort; the larger surface area and curved profile provide a more secure cradle for your pole, preventing it from sliding or bouncing in high winds. The Multigrip Open System is the real game-changer here—the clamps feature a snap-open design that allows you to attach or remove the bar from your seatbox legs instantly. You no longer need to slide accessories over the top of your legs, saving you precious time during setup and allowing for rapid adjustments mid-match.

Built to be incredibly rigid, this bar eliminates the flex often found in cheaper alternatives, ensuring your pole stays dead-still over your bait, even when fishing at extreme lengths in challenging conditions.

Detailed Specifications

Where to Use

• Long Pole Match Fishing: Absolutely essential for sessions at 13m and beyond. It allows you to rest the pole securely, giving your arms a break while you wait for the float to bury.

• Precision “Slapping” & “Dipping”: The stability provided by the Deluxe bar is perfect for high-frequency tactics where you need to drop the rig into the exact same square inch of water repeatedly.

• Extreme Weather Conditions: In high crosswinds, the deep-profile EVA foam helps “pin” the pole in place, preventing the wind from catching the carbon and dragging your rig out of the feeding zone.

• River Pole Fishing: Ideal for holding a heavy flat float perfectly still against a strong current, ensuring your hookbait stays presented naturally on the deck.

Pro Tip

Gerry’s Pro Tip: For maximum efficiency, set the height of your Deluxe Bump Bar so that when the pole is resting on it, the tip is roughly 2-3 inches above the water surface. This allows you to strike upward with minimal effort and keeps the line between the tip and the float tight. If you’re fishing in a “blow,” mount the bar slightly higher on your legs; this pushes the tip closer to the water, shielding your line from the wind’s “surface tow.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Does “Open” mean it is less secure than a standard clamp?

Not at all. The Garbolino Open system uses a high-tension locking nut that provides the same rock-solid grip as a closed clamp. The “Open” refers only to the ease of fitting—it snaps around the leg rather than needing to be slid down from the top.

Will this fit my 30mm legs?

Yes. While it is natively designed for 36mm legs, it comes supplied with the necessary high-quality inserts to provide a perfect, non-slip fit for 25mm and 30mm round legs.

Is the foam soft enough to prevent carbon damage?

The “Deluxe” foam is specifically designed to be “pole-friendly.” It is soft enough to absorb vibrations and protect the finish of your pole, but firm enough that it won’t compress or “bottom out” under the weight of a 16m setup.

How wide is the bar?

The Deluxe version is wider than the standard “Express” models, providing more horizontal room. This is particularly useful if you need to “angle” your pole slightly to the left or right to avoid bankside obstacles or to follow a moving shoal.
