Rubber bands on down riggers?

[VNCowboy]

I want to clear up something that maybe I led into with the rubber bands on the DR's.

I very rarely have a fish come loose from the DR until I loosen the rubber band from the DR. I have caught fish up to 10 lbs and they have stayed on until I release the rubber band.

the rubber bands work better than you would think.

I have lost more fish by not using snubbers than I want to. I have a 90% hookup on snubbers and that is why the rubber bands.

Thus end the rubber vs not sermon
