Fox Horizon Carbon Throwing stick 120cm 24mm

Fox Horizon Carbon Throwing Stick 120cm (24mm) Ultimate Distance Baiting

When you need to accurately tight-feed boilies at extreme ranges that standard plastic sticks simply cannot reach, carbon is the ultimate choice. The Fox Horizon Carbon Throwing Stick (120cm / 24mm) is a precision-engineered, high-modulus carbon tool designed for serious carp anglers who refuse to compromise on distance, speed, and accuracy.

At a massive 120cm in length, this extra-long throwing stick leverages an advanced, sweeping Cobra neck design. This specific curvature rapidly accelerates the boilie as it travels up the internal shaft, generating maximum velocity and spin for unmatched long-range performance. Despite its impressive length, the high-modulus carbon construction ensures it remains exceptionally lightweight. This cuts down on the physical fatigue and muscle strain that usually comes with baiting up with heavy plastic alternatives. To ensure total comfort and precision during heavy baiting campaigns, it is fitted with an ergonomic, anti-twist hand grip that stays securely locked in your hand even in wet or cold weather.

Where & When to Use

• Extreme-Range Carp Baiting: The definitive tool for open-water venues where you need to regularly hit distances over 100 yards with 20mm to 24mm boilies.

• Heavy Baiting Campaigns: Ideal when you need to introduce several kilograms of boilies quickly and accurately without wearing out your shoulder or wrist.

• Stealthy Baiting Situations: Perfect when you want to establish a spread of boilies silently without creating the loud, repetitive surface crashing caused by heavy Spombs or baiting rockets.

Pro Tip from the Gerrys Fishing Team

The integrated bottom-loading port on this Horizon stick is an absolute game-changer for maintaining a fluid, high-speed rhythm. Instead of dropping a bait down the top nozzle after every throw, keep a pouch of boilies around your waist and load them directly into the base port using your non-throwing hand. This lets you keep your eyes locked firmly on your far-bank marker or horizon target, dramatically increasing both your baiting speed and accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can I use smaller baits, like 15mm boilies, in this 24mm model?

While you can physically throw smaller baits through it, this specific model is optimized for boilies between 20mm and 24mm. If you use smaller 14mm or 15mm baits in a wide 24mm tube, they will rattle around on the way up the shaft, which causes them to lose velocity and exit with less accuracy. If you primarily use smaller baits, we highly recommend purchasing the dedicated 20mm model.

How do I prevent my boilies from splitting in half mid-air during the throw?

Because high-modulus carbon sticks generate immense speed and centrifugal force, soft, air-dried, or freezer boilies can sometimes fracture. To prevent this, simply dunk the tip of the throwing stick into the lake or river water to wet the internal channel before you start, or slightly hydrate your baits in water prior to throwing. The thin film of water acts as a lubricant, reducing internal friction and stopping baits from splitting.

What is the purpose of the included EVA bung?

The anti-crush EVA bung fits snugly into the open top of the throwing stick when it is packed away inside the protective neoprene sleeve. Carbon tubes are structurally incredibly strong against pulling and throwing forces, but can be vulnerable to direct crushing if stepped on or trapped in a car boot. The EVA bung reinforces the tip, ensuring your stick remains in pristine condition during transit.
