scotty snubbers

Do any of you use the snubbers on you downriggers, and use 20# balls? I just got two new 2116 and use the snubbers. I have now purchased some 20# balls and noticed there is a lot of stretch in them. Are they good for this weight or do I need to use a different snubbers for that weight. I looked on scotty's Website and found no weight capacity

I use them on 12# balls and have had them break. Don't think they would last with 20# balls. I don't trust them after a year or so either, I think sunlight  affects them.

Talked with scotty today and they said no problem running 20# weights on them they are rated at 150#. Thanks for the info.

Look at the Amish rigger snubbers for another option. They've been great the last 2 seasons for me running 15# sharks.
