Trolling spreaders are commonly used by anglers to reduce line tangles by keeping dropper line and leader separated. The all-new Free Sliding Spreader eliminates line tangles by keep leaders and dropper lines apart, makes playing fish more fun as they are not dragging the weight (perhaps a heavy one) behind when making long runs, saves lost fish should your dropper weight become tangled in the net when the fish gets close, and adds attraction value due to its color. To facilitate all rigging configurations, this spreader can be rigged free-sliding, fixed or in combination with a release system.
