P4L,
Stick with the rubber bands, here's why. When fishing for Kokes you "should" use a snubber to prevent pulling the lure out of the fishes mouth. The rubber band acts as a snubber. You can buy several different sizes for what your fishing for. Office Depot is a great fishing store. Rubber bands are cheap, like a buck for 250, lose one release and your out 10 bucks. You can stack with rubber bands and if you have slide releases you never have to pull your ball up if the upper one gets hit. (have Rich show you this trick, I'll be out of town for the next 6 months). If you hang a small one with fixed releases it's really hard to tell if a fish is on. WIth RBs you can tell the minute it gets hit. Once you get the hang of it it's a piece of cake.
