I get a little nervous about line wrapping my rod tip so I'm a little shy touse the rubberband around the handle method.I made a couple of short lanyards out of leader material app 18 inches long with a loop in one end and a swivel on the other. I hook the loop through a cleat or through itself around a stern eye and then use the rubber band the same way and hook it in the open swivel.I can get the line a little closer to the water and it clears anything on the gunnels. They work as spare downrigger releases too if I need them in a pinch. I've even hooked them on the corners of the Ttop when it was a little dicey to deploy the outriggers so I could get more lines out the back. Good luck with your bluewater pursuits! Please keep us posted as you continue to learn and catch fish.

WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU EXPERTS TALKING ABOUT.....??????????

White Marlin was one of the species he was wanting to catch. :banghead:banghead

He hasn't been fishing deep water for 10 years therefore has not come up with the attitude that you have, Anything besides a blue or YFT is Junk fish.

Remember woody, we all have not have been as lucky in life as you. Shoot the man a PM and tell him how to catch your TRASH FISH. :bowdown:bowdown
