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.
