Tronixpro Match Boom – 20cm

Description

Tronixpro Match Boom 20cm | The Finesse Anglers Secret

When the fishing gets scratchy and every bite counts, presentation is everything. The Tronixpro Match Boom, available here at Gerrys Fishing, is designed for the match angler who needs a ultra-fine, low-profile stand-off to keep light hook snoods away from the rig body without spooking wary fish.

Measuring 20cm, these booms provide a subtle yet effective stand-off that significantly reduces tangles, especially when using long, thin fluorocarbon or mono snoods. Whether youre targeting shy flatfish on a sun-drenched beach or scratching for mini-species over clean ground from a boat, these booms offer the delicate presentation required to turn interest into hook-ups.

Technical Specifications

Where to Use the Tronixpro Match Boom

• Match Fishing: The ultimate tool for building scratching rigs when targeting small whiting, dabs, and pouting in difficult conditions.

• Shy Biters: The slim profile is less visible and offers less resistance in the water than bulky plastic booms, making it ideal for targeting wary species like Sole or Plaice.

• Clean Ground Marks: Best used over sand or mud where the fine wire can sit naturally without snagging.

• Light Boat Work: Perfect for mini-species hunting or when you need a delicate spread of baits to entice fish in clear, shallow water.

Gerrys Pro Tip

These booms come bare to keep them as light as possible, but adding a swivel is easy. Simply slide back the pre-fitted shrink tube, thread on a small, high-quality crane swivel, and slide the tube back over. A quick blast with a lighter or heat gun will secure it permanently. This allows your snood to rotate 360 degrees, which is a massive help when youre using very light lines that tend to twist in the tide!

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these booms strong enough for big fish?

While built for finesse and scratching for smaller species, they are made from high-quality wire. However, if you are specifically targeting big Rays or Cod in heavy tides, we recommend moving up to the Axia Twisted Booms.

Do I need a special tool to add a swivel?

No tools are required. The shrink tube is designed to be moved by hand. Just remember to use a small swivel (size 10 or 12) to maintain the finesse nature of the rig.

Why is 20cm the preferred length?

The 20cm length provides enough stand-off to keep a 1218 inch snood clear of the mainline, even in light currents, which is the sweet spot for most UK match fishing scenarios.

Can I use these with braid?

Yes. These booms are excellent with braid setups as the rigidity of the wire helps counteract the limpness of the braid, ensuring your hooks stay presented rather than tangled around your leader
