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...

FORE!
It's usually darkest just before it turns Black..

Were they breakaways or something similar?
I have yet to break a breakaway, 20# fireline pops first.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
