Protect Your Lines from Shock Loads

Outrigger lines take sudden jolts when a fish strikes, when waves rock the boat, and during sharp turns. Without a shock absorber in the system, those jolts transfer directly to your clip, your line, and potentially your rod. Glass ring snubbers provide a bungee cushion that absorbs those forces before they reach your tackle.

Black's glass rings are inspected for imperfections that could nick or fray your line. The marine grade bungee stretches under load and returns to shape without losing elasticity over time. The stainless snap clips directly to your pad eye or halyard for quick installation. At $26.99 per pair, you get a matched set for both outriggers.

Imperfection-Free Glass Rings

Each glass ring is inspected to ensure there are no chips, cracks, or rough spots that could damage your fishing line. Your line runs through the ring during deployment and retrieval, so surface quality matters.

Marine Grade Bungee

The bungee cord stretches under shock loads and returns to its original length. Marine grade construction means it holds up to UV, salt spray, and repeated stretching without losing elasticity.

Stainless Snap Attachment

The stainless coastlock snap clips directly to pad eyes, halyards, or other attachment points on your outrigger system. Quick on, quick off, no tools required.

How to Install Glass Ring Snubbers

  1. Clip the stainless snap to your outrigger pad eye or halyard
  2. Thread your fishing line through the glass ring
  3. Attach your release clip below the snubber
  4. Repeat on the opposite outrigger
  5. Test the system under light tension before deploying lures
