Plus, taking shots is not my style
I had one clip straighten completely by a 5 lb blue ,lost two beach master juniors and big fish prey. They all somehow slipped off the thing over the course of two nights.
I haven't lost a single plug all year ,and 3 in 24 hours.....

It's a inherent problem with the design.The fastlock is more likely to have that happen in my estimation than the Breakaway clips..
IMO easier on means easier off...If you would have payed attention to the NIB you would know this..I only use the breakaway clips for jigs.When jigging only..The large ones...When plugging I use the # 35 coast lock.That I round out the bottoms with a pair of round nose pliers.Like the ones Mike At CC Tackle sells..
It is the only way...

This also helps to keep em on.

Hey NIBs, where'd you get the carbide stud screws :huh:

Try bergstrem skegs..A company named wearbars makes a screw headed koker stud.I have not tried yet but it looks good..

In bad new department.....I nailed at least forty bass on your Prey swimmer last night (one from Cutty). It was almost like fishing in the blitz at midnight ,they were all over that swimmer.
It broke my heart to have it slip of these new fastlock clips. I hate to loose plugs but when the fish win, they win.But to have it slip of the snap is a heartbreaking. I also lost two bm juniors the night before to a same problem

I just realized I had handled that plug earlier that evening...:rude::wavey:

Thanks, NIBs - hey, wait a minute, what's up here - everybody got the afternoon off?

I got the next 3 in a row off...let's see...front coming thru tonite....big swell has diminished...

Better go and pick up some more eels, I guess -

HEY-OOOOOOO :humpty::humpty::humpty:
