rubber band releases
I use size 16 - 2 1/2 inch by 1/16th inch crepe rubber bands
Do not use the colored or synthetic bands as they are too hard to break and are inconsistent.
Keep them out of the sun and in a cool place or they will deteriorate and break too easily.
I get mine at Office Depot
I just put an open hook (I used a bent nail) on my downrigger ball. Place the rubber band on the line and hook that onto the downrigger ball. It will set the hook before it releases, all you have to do is reel.
