由 Dawn patrol The Rupp CA-0105 Klickers Boat Fishing Outrigger Release Clips (2-Pack) are popular accessories for offshore anglers, designed to help deploy and release fishing lines efficiently when trolling with outriggers. Here’s a quick overview of their features and uses:
Key Features:
– Durable Construction: Made from high-quality materials to withstand saltwater corrosion and heavy loads.
– Easy Adjustability: Tension can be adjusted to accommodate different line strengths (light to heavy tackle).
– Quick Release: Smooth, reliable release action to prevent premature drops or false triggers.
– Compact Design: Fits most standard outrigger setups (compatible with Rupp and other brands).
– 2-Pack: Includes two clips for dual outrigger setups.
Common Uses:
– Trolling for pelagic species (e.g., tuna, marlin, mahi-mahi).
– Preventing line tangles by spreading lines away from the boat.
– Providing a controlled release when a fish strikes.
Installation Tips:
1. Attach the clip to your outrigger line or halyard.
2. Adjust the tension screw based on your line weight (tighter for heavier lines).
3. Test the release before fishing to ensure proper tension.
Pros:
– Reliable performance in rough conditions.
– Simple to use and maintain.
– Affordable compared to premium brands.
Cons:
– May require occasional lubrication for smooth operation.
– Not as heavy-duty as some high-end releases (e.g., Black’s or Scotty).
Where to Buy:
Available at marine supply stores, Amazon, or online fishing retailers (e.g., TackleDirect, Bass Pro Shops).
If you’re setting up an outrigger system, these clips are a solid mid-range option. For heavy-duty use, consider upgrading to stainless steel models. Let me know if you need help with setup or alternatives!
