young gun Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Sorry for all these updates about my fish hawk, I know you are annoyed. I have a cannon down rigger I will use to put my probe on, and it comes with the cannon terminator clip, (which has not busted or came open yet on me) I will attach my X-4 probe to. I am nervous the extra weight with the probe on the terminator clip it might come open, (I am just nervous having a $250 probe on my downrigger.) What snap or system would you recommend for snapping the main downrigger cable to the probe? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Hook Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 I've never had a problem with either the Cannon or the Klincher terminators or the swivels that come with them. Only time I've lost a probe is when I've done something stupid like forget to bring it up before heading back to pier heads. I've even sent the probe down forgetting to close the snap and brought it back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
On_The_Fly Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 The cannon termination kit works great, I run my X-4D probe and a 15 pound weight all the time.... you will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's designed to break if you should hang your rigger ball. I would much rather lose a ball then a probe, Good luck- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
