It's a Snap
What's your preference when it comes to snaps?
Duolok seem to provide better action.
Crosslocks, by design, are less apt to fail.
Breakaways seem bulkier and more apt to come off.

After losing a few good fish to snaps, it's been nothing but knots for me for years.

There's a difference between Coastlocks and Crosslocks.
Coastlocks are made by Rosco and are one of the strongest widely available snaps.
Crosslocks are made by Berkley and  |

I didn't know they were brand names I always thought they were a generic name for a style.I guess its a good thing I've always bought the
Rosco snaps. |

Usually the Breakaways or Coastlocks. Depends on the type of fishing and situation.

Breakaways mostly and coastlocks on tins, poppers and plugs that breakaways won't easily attach to.
