ABSTRACT:
A downrigger line release device includes a clamp mounted to a fishing line, a coupler mounted to a downrigger line, and a swivel connector pivotally interconnecting the clamp and coupler to one another. The coupler includes a flexible retainer element convertable from a rolled-up condition in which it slidably receives the downrigger line to an unrolled condition in which it releases therefrom in response to a predetermined force being applied to the retainer element so as to permit uncoupling of the fishing line from the downrigger line.
