Big C Tackle Pro Release II Downrigger Release Clip – Flame Orange

Smart, predictable releases that adapt to your setup

The Pro Release II from Big C Tackle redefines how you experience downrigger releases. Built around a revived pinched bobbin design, this clip aims for smooth, repeatable action across a wide tension range. When line tension changes, you’ll feel a deliberate release rather than a guess, helping you stay focused on your day on the water instead of gear fiddling.

How it’s designed to perform

• Pinched bobbin over a rugged rubber wheel delivers consistent rod loading and release timing.
• Compatible with braided and monofilament lines for versatile setups.
• 3' leash transmits action while keeping the weight properly positioned under the water.
• Thumbnut adjusts tension from less than 0 to 20 pounds, all without tools.
• Simple loading: lay the line on the bobbin, wrap 3–4 times, set tension, and you’re ready to fish from the package.

Build, durability, and visibility

• Brass, stainless steel, and solid plastic components resist corrosion in demanding conditions.
• Made in the USA with a focus on value and longevity.
• Flame orange color enhances visibility and helps you track line and action at a glance.

Real-world use and what to expect on the water

Across deep trolling, mid-depth retrievals, and shore-side setups, the Pro Release II aims to provide a reliable timing feel. Its design minimizes false releases and offers straightforward loading, so you can react quickly when a bite comes. While outcomes depend on your line, weight, and fishing style, the unit offers a range of possibilities for consistent releases rather than guarantees.

What’s included in practice

Out of the box, you get a complete and ready-to-fish release clip that emphasizes ease of use, durability, and clear feedback when the line loads and releases. This makes it a practical choice for anglers who value predictable performance and a robust build.
