I thought I would show you what we use down here, there are pressure sensitive release clips available, but I like this set up better. The weight is a section of stainless steel prop shaft, available from any boat yard that does repairs. You stick the point in the fish mouth and out the gill cover. When you yank up on the rod the swivel shifts, the point is now down and the fish slides off. This makes it easier for the fish to swim away or for sharks to eat it ! These are mandatory I believe on the Gulf side of Florida, and recommended on the Atlantic side.
