[black][size 3]All of the releases use different methods to attach the line. (some wrap around posts, some fit between sides of a tensioned spring, several different methods. [/size][/black]

[size 3]The fish will set the hook when it takes the bait. It has to hit it hard enough to pull the line from the release. [/size]
[size 3][/size]
[size 3]Also, because the line is held in place by tension, you will have to "hand test" the amount of pull required to release. (large fish require more tension than small fish)[/size]
[black][size 3]If you go to the Cabelas web site, under trolling equipment, they have a number of downrigger releases shown. This will give you an idea of the different types available.[/size][/black]
