Protect Your Cable and Weight on Every Drop
The Scotty 371 Trolling Snubber installs between your downrigger cable and weight, absorbing shock on the strike and during retrieval to protect your cable from sudden load spikes. It also provides electrical insulation between the cable and weight, reducing corrosion in saltwater, and helps deflect the weight away from bottom snags. The 371 includes a Sampo™ trolling snap for quick, secure weight attachment — the straightforward, reliable choice for anglers who don’t need a ball bearing swivel at the weight connection.
Key Features
- Shock absorption — cushions sudden load on your cable when a fish strikes or the weight contacts bottom
- Sampo™ trolling snap — secure, self-locating weight attachment; quick to rig and reliable under load
- Electrical insulation — isolates the weight from the cable to reduce corrosion and stray current in saltwater
- Snag reduction — snubber profile helps the weight deflect off bottom structure
- Easy-grip design for rigging with cold or wet hands

Parts Desk Insights
The 371 is the best choice for anglers who want reliable shock absorption and snag protection at the weight connection without the added cost of a ball bearing swivel. It’s the most popular snubber for standard freshwater trolling setups where line twist at the weight isn’t a concern. If you troll in saltwater, run heavier weights at speed, or experience line twist issues, the Scotty 370 with Sampo™ ball bearing swivel is the better fit. Pair with the Scotty 3022BK Weight Mate to keep your weight and snubber organized on the boom between sets.
