Cannon Uni-Release
The Cannon Uni-Release attaches directly to
the downrigger weight. Attach fishing line to the
clip at the end of the release, and then click
through a series of increasing tension settings.
The release can be used with any test line on salt
or fresh water and may be adjusted from 2 to 22
pounds of grip tension on the line.
To change line release tension, turn tension knob
to (+) to increase or (-) to decrease. Tension also
may vary according to where the line is placed in
the grips. Higher tension is on the line if it is set
back toward the hinge, and lower if set closer to
the opening. To open the release, spread the
release arms with thumb and forefinger applying
pressure to the sides.
