Cannon 16 Pound Flash Weight

The Cannon 16 Pound Flash Weight is a premium downrigger weight designed for serious trollers and charter captains who demand precision depth control and fish-attracting performance. Built for saltwater and freshwater applications, this 16-pound weight delivers the mass needed to hold your lures at productive depths while maintaining stability across varying trolling speeds. Whether you're working structure on the Great Lakes, coastal waters, or deep reservoirs, this weight integrates seamlessly into any modern downrigger system to maximize your presentation consistency and catch rate.

The Cannon 16 Pound Flash Weight features reflective prism tape that mimics the flash and movement of baitfish, triggering aggressive strikes from fish at depth—a proven advantage when targeting walleye, lake trout, salmon, and stripers. Its tapered design tracks straight and true regardless of trolling speed, eliminating side-drift that can spoil lure action and waste time repositioning. The durable vinyl coating resists corrosion, UV degradation, and abrasion from cable and rigging wear, ensuring season after season of reliable performance without the need for frequent replacement or maintenance.

This downrigger weight is ideal for anglers running cable-deployed systems—particularly those fishing at depths between 40 and 120 feet where flash attractants deliver real advantage. The 16-pound rating suits recreational and commercial trolling rigs, providing enough weight to control line angle and depth without excessive strain on cable and release systems. Compatible with standard Cannon downrigger cable and snap-clip release mechanisms, installation is straightforward; simply attach to your cable and begin fishing with confidence that your weight will maintain depth integrity and performance throughout the day.
