Sterrn shore tie systems

[optimystic]

I'm preparing for an extended trip north in Canada where the water is deep up to the shore. Stern tie is required in many anchorage’s. Most boats use simple floating line hose reels and some opt for dedicated webbing systems. I’m wondering if I can use my down rigger steel cable and reel system with a snubber and stretchy line at both ends. This would let me avoid a huge role of rope and I can still use it for fishing. Has anyone tried this?
