I just run this setup off the ball minus the swivel now, and a Scotty Stacking clip up top. Never lose anything now plus don't need a stopper at the ball.
you could make longer ones, I’ve used some 15-20’ tuna cord specifically for sockeye sessions.and what are doing if your stacking???
Yes, I read through this all and thought the same… it is always the stacked clip that I lose, when I get lazy and don’t add a stop thinking oh sure I’ll remember lol! I need an engineering fix to compensate for my brain!and what are doing if your stacking???

It wouldn't matter if the clip failed as it's only used on the ball retrieverThe pics are great Casper but do yourself a favour and get rid of those plastic Scotty clips (the one to the snubber)…I lost 2 balls this year due to them failing (not breaking but stretching and opening)
He’s got a black plastic clip from gangion to the snubber as wellIt wouldn't matter if the clip failed as it's only used on the ball retriever
if I'm seeing this correctly
Those plastic clips will also allow crab trap ropes to get inside the clip preventing you from being able to simply back up and get off the trap line. If you fish around commercial traps its only a matter of time before those clips mess you up.I just run this setup off the ball minus the swivel now, and a Scotty Stacking clip up top.

I don't run the swivel anymore though, just tie all 3 lines together.sure enough lost a clip yesterday. Just wondering what you are doing instead of a swivel at the top?
i tried this a few years back and sometimes the clip wouldn’t pay out with the cannon. how did you fix that?I don't run the swivel anymore though, just tie all 3 lines together.
