Quick take
8-pound vinyl-coated downrigger weight with keel for accurate depth tracking during trolling.
This is an 8 lb cannonball downrigger weight from MarineNow with a vinyl coating and a built-in keel. The keel keeps the weight tracking straight and cuts down on cable twist while trolling. The coating helps protect the boat and gear in fresh or salt water. It suits anglers running downriggers to put a lure at a set depth.
