Jolly Release

[Waltzin Sue]

Can anyone tell me if Jolly Release is still in business? I've been using them for many years and some are going bad. Wanted to buy new rubber pads for them. I searched on line, but did not get a hit for them. Any contact info would be appreciated too. Thanks!

All the information above is right. My Dad is still making releases, and also sells the replacement rubber pads and hardware.

Thanks for posting the info Time Out and Mudflat.

Jolly II , Many years ago I fashoned an add a line release from one of your fathers releases. I sent him a pictuter of 2 lakers on the same rod. That happened a few times with that setup. I still use them . I like the adjustable tension feature.

Jolly Releases........The ONLY releases used with my big boards since I found them in 1992...

Has Been,

I remember as a kid that happening a bunch of times. I don't remember exactly how we rigged it, but I'm sure the set up was similar to how you rigged it up. 2 lakers on the same rod, a laker and a skipper on the same rod. I even think one trip to the Bar with Dad and my Uncle Tom we landed a laker and a pretty decent salmon. LOL The good old days! But I think the good old days are back!

I got to talk him into a sight modification to the design so that we can run lead core and copper off the big boards. See if he wants to tap into that year round side planer fishery.

If anyone needs releases, or replacement pads and hardware you can PM on here and I'll send the contact for my Dad, same contact info that Mudflat posted above.

Thanks guys! Looking forward to ice out, and getting some browns!

I  think BEtackle in Ontario has replacement pads.
