Breakaway BC1 Cannon
The Breakaway BC1 Cannon is a premium casting aid designed to help surf anglers achieve longer, more controlled casts while reducing strain on the index finger. Mounted directly to a compatible surf rod, the BC1 Cannon securely holds the fishing line until the moment of release, allowing anglers to cast heavy sinkers and bait rigs with greater confidence and consistency.
A favorite among tournament casters and serious surf fishermen, the BC1 Cannon is especially beneficial when using braided line or heavy shock leaders. By transferring casting pressure away from your finger, it helps improve comfort while promoting smoother, more powerful casting performance. Whether you're targeting red drum along the beaches of Hatteras Island or casting from the Outer Banks shoreline, the Breakaway BC1 Cannon is a proven upgrade for surf fishing enthusiasts. Frank & Fran's proudly serves anglers throughout the Outer Banks and ships nationwide.
