Cannon line release trigger.

[mick dunn]

Well guys in for a penny in for a pound. Taped the release contraption to my 15ft rod today. Put the reel on and went up local fields for practice. Seem ok. Still odd though-reckon my tt and 525 can match no bother at moment.
Thinking I should have got a Penn Surf reel rather than cheaper Jarvis Walker 6500 but to be honest its all about trying at the moment. Also ordered some 80lb braid for leader.

I tried one of those cannons but couldn't get away with it. Strange feel to release.

mick i do my f/s opposite.ive got 50lb braid on spool,then a 60lb mono s/leader.never lost an inch of the braid in over 3yrs.

[mick dunn]

I have the mono leader on now 60lb. Feels ok but thought I would give braid a go out of curiosity.

[codcatcher3000]

if ur used to the multiplier feel but wanna use fixed spool use a thumbbutton. it mimics a multiplier release . just remember to have ur drag fully tightened

??????? - Have one spool with 30lb braid and 60lb shockleader and never snapped the mainline yet - spare spool with 80lb braid which is used when encountering masses of weed that normally catch on the shockleader knot and eventually clog the tip ring.
