Bassin101 Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 How many of you use light wire clips rather than tying direct? On which lures? Do you notice a difference in action or catch rate? : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bipr8 Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 I use speed clips (Normans?) on my cranks, usually the more shallow running 0-8ft. I have seen no ill affect to their action. I have yet to lose one either due to a faulty clip and I have used them for about 5 years now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronze12 Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 I used to use snaps and swivels on just about everything. I'm trying to get away from that though and I'm using swivels only on baits that are going to twist my line if I were to tie direct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattlinrogue Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 I do use them on crankbaits,jerkbaits,and 'traps.I've caught alot of fish with them on.I've caught a 12.2,10.5,10.3,and a 10.1 with the clips attached.They're obviously strong enough to take a big fish.

Super User Marty Posted April 7, 2005 Super User Share Posted April 7, 2005 I have used small duolock snaps for as long as I can remember and have 100% confidence in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tritonman Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 I use snaps, even on topwater lures, depending on the size off the lure. Will tie direct though when going into weeds. Tie direct to plastics, and jigs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
