Location: Essexville, MI./Saginaw Bay. | I've had some interest expressed by some of our members through PM's and E-mail about what brand and size rubber bands I use in conjuction with my mast type boards and clip type releases. And even though they moved from one state to another, I trace down the company where some charter boat friends of mine bought us the 30,000 bands we bought and have been using the last 8 years, and of which there is only a single 1,000 bag left. Heres their internet site and the size I'm pretty sure we bought. http://www.alliancerubber.com/products/rubberbands.htm Size 63 Sterling, 1/4 wide X 3 inch long. You loop tie the band on the line and bite it off near the knot at one end. The band then become 6 inches long. Then attach it to the release. The band should stay tightly on the line marking it's individual length, and is reeled in through the guides and onto the spool with each fish landed. Then ready to go again at that length when let back out.
