I have exclusively used the 35# clips. In about 1.5 seasons of use, only one has failed. I use them jigging, plugging, topwater, whatever. The one that failed was attatched to a jig which became attatched to a rock. I have had my leader or my main line break before the clips on all other snags. One of my fishing partners uses the larger ones only. the only reason is he isn't as youngs as I am and has a hard time seeing the small clips...
