I use an OR 19 clip up front and i have a ball bearing snap on the rear. Line passes through snap. When board releases it slides back to a bead and swivel I place 6ft ahead of my bait. This serves two purposes- 1) I fight the fish and not the board and 2) when the board releases the fish and line tracks to the center of the boat and i reel fish right up the chute. It's a great, tangle free system plus it's pretty exciting watching that board go back.
