Cannonball Downrigger Weight 12lb

Cannonball Downrigger Weight 12lb

A straightforward 12 lb cannonball downrigger weight for getting your trolling setup down into the water column and keeping your Alaska salmon presentation at fishing depth.

Why you need this:

When you need a little more weight on your downrigger, this 12 lb Cannonball Downrigger Weight keeps things simple.

The traditional round cannonball design provides the weight needed to get your trolling gear down and help maintain your desired fishing depth. For Alaska anglers trolling deeper water, dealing with current, or looking for a heavier option than a 10 lb weight, the 12 lb size gives you another choice for matching your downrigger setup to the conditions.

No gimmicks. Just weight where you need it.

What's this good for?

• Alaska salmon trolling
• Downrigger fishing
• Saltwater trolling
• Chinook (King) Salmon
• Coho (Silver) Salmon
• Deeper trolling applications
• Controlling trolling depth
• Coastal and marine fishing
• Boat trolling setups

How to use?

Secure the cannonball weight to the terminal end of your downrigger cable using appropriate downrigger hardware. Attach your fishing line to the release, lower the weight to your desired depth, and troll your bait or lure through the strike zone.

The right downrigger weight can depend on your equipment, trolling speed, current, fishing depth, and conditions. We carry these cannonball weights in multiple sizes, giving you options for different setups.

Always inspect your downrigger cable, connections, and terminal hardware before deployment.

And watch your feet. Twelve pounds is plenty heavy enough to remind you about gravity.

What can we say?

It's round. It's heavy. It sinks.

Sometimes fishing equipment doesn't need a marketing department.

For Alaska downrigger trolling, this is old-school equipment with one straightforward purpose: help get your gear down where you're trying to fish.

Why we love this one:

Cannonball weights are about as uncomplicated as trolling equipment gets. The traditional round profile does the job without unnecessary extras, and having multiple weights available lets Alaska anglers choose what makes sense for their particular downrigger and fishing conditions.

The 12 lb version gives you a step up from the lighter 10 lb option when your setup calls for additional weight.
