I use the same black rubber tubing used for setting up drift rigs.

My method requires that you lean over to pull the clip off before retreiving the lower clip, but with the quick release snap it is pretty easy and less fuss than other methods I have tried.
I also use a scotty downrigger cable stopper above the stacked rig so it will automatically stop.
