Thanks i've been trying to figure out how to rig this thing on the cheap, i personally think the price of the finned downrigger weights is ridiculous. I'd imagine that you could even replace the scotty release with a modified clothespin. (maybe add some electrical tape where it clamps down, and put a piece of plastic on the end you squeeze to round it off to prevent some spin. idk just random ideas
)
I've always wondered how well you could use something like this to present lures / bait to hali-s. i'd imagine kelp that you can't see would be an issue
