Quick take
Stainless steel casting trigger that protects fingers during heavy-load surf casts.
The Cast Cannon is a clip-on trigger aid for surf casting, built from stainless steel and plastic and held to the rod with hook-and-loop straps. It sits between the line and your index finger, which helps when you are launching heavy baits from the beach. Anglers who cast long and want to spare their fingers will find a single unit that weighs only about 0.04 kilograms.
