Re: Black's downrigger release Help!

Thank you guys. Just sounds like I'm not twisting enough. I also took more of your advice and just bought 2 chamberlain releases. fishing winni this weekend, I'll let you know if I've "mastered" this yet. Have a great day.

When I switched to Blacks I gave away all my old Roemers, when I switched to Chamberlains I kept all my old Black's, just in case and now and then we still use one as a stacker..

Re: Black's downrigger release Help!

I'm another Chamberlain lover but today I had 2 fish of reasonable size not release my Chamberlain. I'm sure a minor adjustment will fix the issue.

Chamberlain stackers are coming out so I'm excited. I can't use attractors from the ball if I have Chamberlains but the stackers will make it possible.

Have you tried hooking your Chamberlain to the rigger cable swivel, then a verticle attractor between the Chamberlain and rigger ball at the end? From there you can hook on a horizontal to the ball if you want.Many including myself, use them that way.
Off to the salt tomorrow!
