Surf Casting With A Break Away Cannon

[@pault5947]

Thank you for zooming out each time the line was released

[@andrewdking]

That looks like the same reel I use, a Daiwa Tournament Surf QDA and it has braid mainline with a heavier shock leader, so I also use the British Breakaway Tackle Casting Cannon. Works well, but its placement position on the rod is important for best release timing results

Best thing since sliced F̶i̶n̶g̶e̶r̶... bread

[@nealskelton1425]

And exactly why didn't I know about this 10 years ago?

[@scottgrizzle5879]

that's pretty cool, when catfishing I often use big sinkers and large bait, so I can definitely see how this would be handy.thanks for the video.

[@ignatiuslaurent58]

I bought three a year ago . I gave my brother one but I haven't use it yet . I notice it's south africa angler who use them .

[@djhigh392]

A mates dad degloved his finger with braid. Gotta get one for him .

[@IJRR8789]

hi sir, how many pound of braided line you are using? thank you.

[@IJRR8789]

and sorry what knot you tie mono to braided thank you

[@NengowGaming]

After some research these are called "casting triggers". Apparently used a lot in asia and very cheap. I got some other brand from ebay called hyper something and have been using it for a year without any problems. These things really do help cast a mile!

[@Deviliciouslittledevil]

Check with Breakaway products,a lot of these toys was created by Breakaway

[@tsungtsai7789]

@@Deviliciouslittledevil no? They've been around since forever, they are generic casting triggers that are manufactured in china. breakaway only rebranded it for the US market. Theres no such thing as "breakaway cannon", its a marketing name for a basic casting trigger that can literally be purchased elsewhere for a fraction of the price.

[@Deviliciouslittledevil]

@@tsungtsai7789 Breakaway UK before they have the US market as most in UK focus in UKSF, spinning reels are not that popular there they mainly use multipliers either low mount or high mount so this kind of triggers are not in demand or popular there but seriously they would like to use bicycle tire tube as thumb guard,some in asia doesnt use them either,usually good quality finger guard made from joey's skin(baby kangaroo) for spinning reels & the old tire tube for multiplier,i dont see japanese casters using those triggers too,who else can manufactured it other than china,if made in UK,the price would be crazy

[@tsungtsai7789]

@@Deviliciouslittledevil What im saying is the product wasn't developed by breakaway, nor is this thing called a "breakaway cannon". Its a generic casting trigger that was simply rebranded and which they are selling at insane prices. $30 for a trigger is stupid. No one should have to pay that price. Im from china we can get them here for less than $5. Not some copy, literally the exact same thing. How do I know? Because I have both.

[@Deviliciouslittledevil]

@@tsungtsai7789 i understood bro,its a rebrand but its not popular at all when the majority of casters in UK are multiplier users btw are you a caster as well?

[@bernardonokohwemu1428]

Nice video. Thanks.👍

[@arnoldoliveira2966]

Got mine on e-bay for $23.00, It works just as he says...I dont know why, but it also increases the power in the rod, and i'm casting much farther.

[@Francois_Dupont]

its about 5$ on aliexpress.

[@joselopezgarcia528]

Thanks for sharing

[@rafaelluiz4404]

Perfect, I sometimes even cut my finger when I forget to tighten the bobbin .. can you tell me the name of this tool so I can use it in my fishing? Brasil.

[@callummccyzr1255]

Breakaway casting cannon

[@samtaylor8368]

That's pretty funny I actually have the same set up and was using it tonight I don't have a breakaway Cannon and I did hurt my finger twice lol you should get a fishingrod like this they're pretty cool

[@jordanhicks5131]

neat, I just put a wrap or 2 of duct tape around the 1st joint of the index finger where the line sits as you cast. Makes your finger damn near bulletproof for pennies.

[@johnschwartz6941]

Just a few questions that's a nice high-capacity real what kind is it and what kind of braided line is that what pound test is it I'm a surf fisherman I surf fish on the beach just wondering I'm always looking at stuff like this

[@MICKIN310]

what kind of reel is that?

[@sapitoazul]

de que parte de Mexico eres? .saludos

[@thomasstauffer6191]

I like that feather for casting

[@erictorres2791]

nice cast man that's cool stuff right there

[@brianjenkins5591]

Aloha Kris and thanks for the info very good to know that other than wearing a glove there is something else out there!!!!

[@franciscopeixoto6609]

Hi. What pound test were you using?

[@kavak1344]

What pound braid was that?

[@Bizarius1]

Really cool, thanks for the tip!

[@steveg8322]

bought 2 one for the wife (loves it) and me (hate it) for 25 bucks apiece ,I thought that was arip-off,but she really likes it.Improves her casting.Takes a bit of practice

[@pacman4568]

I have fished for years and have never damaged my finger. A casting cannon seems to be pointless to me.

[@7287287]

cool idea. 36$ is a bit steep. ill buy a big role of finger tape for a 1$ at my sport store. maybe for like 10$ itd be ok.

[@44studawg]

Steven Heidt Exactly Lol I tape my fingers

[@Lycan_24_7]

Or a glove

[@donthornthatfish2444]

It's a functional idea for someone who only uses one rod baiting and waiting, I'd keep my casting glove though. I fish more then one rod and use both spinning and casting outfits so I'll keep to my kevlar thumb and index padding.

[@adubz2009]

Beats having a bunch tape on my finger. Definitely with the money.

[@ronjaime3493]

Lol that's what I'm doing rt now lol

[@Deviliciouslittledevil]

A good finger guard made of kangaroo's leather is good enough,it can lasts u for years

[@Addictedtothewild]

You will need a heavy line backer when using these or you will break off your rig on those hard throws.

[@Jaak_the_Belgian]

That's absolutely true. The shockleader should be 60 to 70 Lbs test when you use a Breakaway Cannon (10Lbs per ounce of casting weight). The cannon facilitates stronger casts, because even a protected finger (with finger-stall or glove) will have the tendency to let go just that little bit too soon.

[@Deviliciouslittledevil]

I usually use 80lb braid join to a smaller poundage braid,tapered braided is good but costly,usually used for interline surf rods

[@VelmasDumpTruck]

what's the best place to fish in hatch

[@Deviliciouslittledevil]

A good quality japanese finger guard made from kangaroo's leather is good enough for me it did last me for years if i'm casting using spinning reels as for multipliers i'll use bicycle tire tube for thumb guard

[@josephagamble8863]

awesome thanks Kris

[@catfishstalkeroutdoorswith530]

Good Video!

[@obxfishing1800]

I suggest filming on the right handed caster's left side, for safety. From some break offs I've seen, you were in danger there. Hope this tip keeps you and everyone else safe!

[@farinrin8177]

What the name of tht thing sir

[@makcatchem9614]

Breakaway canon

[@catmastercatfishing7436]

OK I like that that's nice to know.👍💯💯💯

[@lcpd696]

Muddy river cat fishing do you ever use bait casts

[@sammartin2556]

Video starts a 2:05

[@its2ezcatfish1]

that's really nice,,

[@charlesjackson3433]

Got one. Practiced with it on the bank. 12ft. Rod, 50lb. Braid main line, 4,6&8 oz.. stinkers. Was able to get 70 to 80 yard casts regularly. This is great for me, I need to be able to get out to where the stripers and big cats are. I haven't tried casting with 2 to 3oz cut bait on the end of a slip sinker rig, but if I drop my poundage on my braided main line I think I can get 70 - 80 yrd casts with the slip sinker rig. Breakaway cannon is very forgiving on your index finger when casting. I would practice a few casts with it before actually trying to fish with it. It's not hard to use at all. SAFETY FIRST.

[@raulbernal3421]

just one thing on amazon it's more cheap the difference it's like a 10 bucks

[@ScreamingReel500]

$25...I have 3 surf rods. I will improvise. I am thinking of either cut the milk jug and tape a strip on the rod where the index finger hold the line again the rod, or tape it on the index finger of the glove. This will slip and won't cut the index finger. May be the right size of the PVC pipe over the glove index finger will do the trick. Bend the PVC with head gun so it has the curvature and cut it to length, then drill small holes on one end so that it can be stiched to the glove index finger. do the same to other end of the PVC piece but leave the area where the line slip off untouched. This way you can use one glove for all the rods.

[@Smeltz247]

Reel500 aquaskinz figer Shield it's great. Let's you feel the line without the pain. It $18 on amazon.

[@etbonafe]

Duh. Just use some athletic tape instead of going through all that mess.

I just use my finger....30 years of surf fishin and finger has never been cut

[@nadeemuddin9070]

where is an attachment?? warping with tap is really no good

[@nengow]

breakaway is such a rip off. $20-30 for a piece of plastic. We use this in asia all the time so I know it is cheap. They are actually called "casting triggers". There is a brand on ebay called hypertackle or something which sells the EXACT same thing but for like, half the price. but yea these things work brilliantly you can heave your bait really far without getting finger cuts.

[@Deviliciouslittledevil]

Not all asian casters uses the triggers,it depends on their reels,multiplier or spinning reel

[@nengow]

@@Deviliciouslittledevil well of course not all, but where im from there is a large part that does. my point is, this isnt some new tech that warrants a $30 price tag. It literally costs less than $5 where im from. Also this is solely used for spinning reels.

[@Deviliciouslittledevil]

@@nengow i can agree that Breakaway UK is a rip off usually for us here in singapore we simply ignore some of their products but we sure like their bait clips,impact shield when we found out that the same products can be bought from China at a cheap rate & shipping cost we are pissed,there was a forum about the trigger & a lot are arguing about it so far i'm happy with the long distance fishing just by using a good quality finger guard fishing at 160-180m is good enough for me,that is why most will focus to make their snood streamlined using the baitclips or impact shield

[@nengow]

@@Deviliciouslittledevil its crazy, breakaway literally doesn't make anything I just checked impact shields on alibaba they are 1 cent a piece LOL

[@Deviliciouslittledevil]

@@nengow i'm a bit lucky since we got SC (Siow Chang) i dont have to order it from the States,SC is the maker of Penn products,well bro thanks anyway for your feedback i'll look up for those impact shields,bait clips & rotten bottem link in Alibaba it was really helpful

[@outdoorsjoe]

cool idea but not worth more than $5

[@jimquantic]

Good stuff, thanks. Tip, lose gum, then speak on film

[@buckrogers6293]

Another good idea that will be killed because someone is greedy. $32.65 + Free Shipping....wow what a favor you are doing for the community by including free shipping. We should all jump on this now while it last. 5 - 8 bucks tops. Don't care what it cost to develop it. At the end of the day....there are options that are much much more cheaper than this.

[@andrewmorke]

Cast all summer without a cut on 30 lb braid. A leather glove or finger sleeve will work fine.

[@Enpassantful]

Never seen anyone cut a finger from casting.

[@gottadutch]

I'm guessing you've never tried surf casting a reel spooled with braided line before?

[@raeezpyne5149]

one word multiplier

[@pacman4568]

I have fished for many years using a fixed spool reel and I have never damaged or cut my finger when casting. I gave a casting cannon a try and found it ti be a complete waste of time. Casting cannon is a pointless and worthless addition.

[@elvisrocks2184]

150 yds !...you wish .

[@maasai-]

Andy Jones R u kidding , with that setup u can reach average 140M easily.

[@elvisrocks2184]

@@maasai- no you cant , not with a baited hook or two added to the set up. i can cast a plain lead 240m on the tournament field but i seriously doubt i have ever managed more than 125 maybe 130 on the beach .
