stacker releases

[jmh2698]

What is the best stacker release. I use blacks releases off the ball but I don't like them for stacking applications. Any suggestions. Thanks.

Scotty makes a pincher stacker. I've used them and they work well.

Scotty cable pinchers are cats azzz

Just don't forget to stop the rigger if its powered or it'll put a hurt on the cable....it slides down but It's not cool. Put a stop bead on the cable above it so that doesn't happen.

Don't make this a coated cable vs Fish Hawk debate please... but

How do the Scotty stackers work on coated cable? Do the pinch pads or the snap cause any damage? I have the X4 so I don't run coated cable but I was wondering because I thought about using them occasionally on a buddy's boat that runs the Depth Raider. Would they or do they damage the coating?

Andy...Not Sure about the coated cable. I run the x-4 as well. I can tell you that you can really load up the rod on the stackers. I like the rod tips at the water, and ripping the fish's face off on the release....LOl....I think you would be ok on the coated cable. It seems pretty tough. As previously mentioned , I would just keep an eye out for the release when brining up the ball.

Yeah, I use them often on my boat. Just never on coated cable for that reason. I don't want to screw up anybody's coated cable and I don't know any better since I don't use it myself.

I use the Scotty's all the time with the exception of Chamberlains on Oneida for walleye. Riggers and big boards for lead and copper.

Roemers have never done me wrong.

I use the scottys for stacking with out issues on the coated cable, just have to watch to stop it so they don't tear it up if you are powering up like Mark said

I take a Romer w/ the steel hoop & attach an Offshore to it. Slides up & down easily on the retrive & I lke the ease of th pinch pad. Can't imagin what would be better.

when the fish are aggressive instead of using a stacker i will drop the ball 10ft apply a rubber band and then put a cheater above it so then you know your lure is 10 ft from your down depth eliminates tangles and another rod set up

Chamberlain Has come out with a stacker now.

I havent used it but it is basically the same release mechanism and his regular release. Check out his website.

I have been running Roemers for over 30 years and they have never done me wrong. They have become a little harder to find though.
