This was buried in a korker thread.It is some good info I have been saying for some time now..
Clips that don't have a positive locking mechanism can cuse you some heartache.Are they worth the trouble..

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...IT CAN CERTAINLY HAPPEN WITH JIGS ALSO..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...
