Friend of mine uses spincasters all the time  , so he also uses snap swivels to keep line twists at a minimum.

When he uses spinnerbaits or buzzbaits they tangle almost every time.

Instead of using rubberbands, that always get lost, I cut a small grub cross ways, slide it over the end before he puts the snap on. Works well, and makes use of chewed up grubs. Scissors work good to cut a thin piece out of the grub (or worm).

Maybe this will help somebody

I'm confused...you put the grub around the snap?

No, you slide the piece of grub or worm over the connection end of the spinner/buzzbait then put the snap on. This prevents the snap from sliding down and tangling the bait. you also can use the same idea to keep a trailer hook in place.

I really don't have this problem too much.  For the most part, my strike king spinners run true.  I also shake my spinner quite a bit though, so that might keep throwing it back on the center.  Thanks for the sharing though, I'll give that a try if it becomes a problem.  I've noticed the smaller spinnerbaits will do this though, like the smaller boo-yahs I have.

Never use snaps with spinnerbaits.   Always tie directly.

99% of the time, I don't use snaps with spinnerbaits.  If I do, I'm fishing for Esox (northern pike or musky), and that's because I'm using a pretied leader.  And most of those spinnerbaits use an enclosed loop, instead of an R-bend.

Like I said, it's for somebody who uses a spincaster, not myself. I was going to take a picture to show what I meant, but I don't even have a snap. I haven't used a spincaster in 45 years. Thought it might be useful for somebody's kids. 

i think thats kind of odd that someone would use a spincaster...i think spinning reels are just as easy but i think more efficient.

He is the most stubborn person you met, but I've known him all my life and he loves fishin'. He will not use a spinning reel, and definitely not a baitcaster. He has at least two of every Zebco EVER made, I kid you not 

I take those twistie tie things (like on loafs of bread), strip the paper off, and twist it around the R bend, that way I can use snaps on spinnerbaits. I don't lots of rods, so my spinnerbait rod is my crankbait rod is jig rod etc. They don't tangle on me, not any more than tying directly.

As Sam showed me you can use a snap on a spinnerbait without many problems. You have to cut a piece of fuel line or any other rubber to fit over the spinnerbait like pictured. I really still prefer to just use a palomar knot, but if your in a rush and want to use a snap this method works the best. It ultimately just prevents the snap from moving beyond that point. All credit is due to Sam

Thanks for showing the photo.  That is a great ideal.

My fishing partner uses the tubing on his spinner baits with snaps also uses snaps on crankbaits.

Here is an interesting story. First off I always thought it was a bad idea. Risk of spinner bait rolling on a hook set. Well last summer we got onto a grest spinner bait bite. 101 bass landed total. Very few missed. He used this set up with CXX and I tied directly with braid. We fished a heavily reed filled area. Many snags. I never counted who landed what do to the fact that we were neck in neck. I still and will alwyas tie direct but I was amased at the result.

I use pliers and squeeze the wires closed to make an eye. I then bend the spinner side wire down a little to make it run correctly again. Never had a bit of problem even when pulling the boat after getting hung up.

Before i started making my own spinnerbaits (closed eye) i would wrap the "r" with some fine wire about 6 times and then solder it. I hate "r" bends....

I use snaps all the time with my spinnerbaits.  Take a split ring and slide it over the line tie.  Never lost a spinnerbait doing this.
