    I use the no knot fas-snaps, i also have all the different sizes. I dock fish a lot and use an old dip can, keep my hooks in it with a bunch of different colored Bobby garland baits glued on to jig head, makes it a quick easy process to change colors.

    I have started using the medium fas-lock and love them. I pre-make my rigs with a loop on top and 2 snaps on the tag ends then I can change my baits easily. I've learned how to use my thumb nail to easily remove the baits from the snaps.

    Medium size give you the most versatility and slips through the hook eyes the best to give a more natural presentation. No matter which size you go to, check it out a few times a day as they will stretch open and will allow jigs to fall off. I used them a lot in years past. The mediums will allow the use of anything from a 1/80th ounce Grizzly Jig up to 1/8 ounce jig heads. There again, check the snap especially after changing out some of the larger eye jigs.

    Although for years I've been using the Mustad Snap Hooks (from Netcraft), I've recently tried this less costly replica. Seems to be working out fine and I like the larger tie-eye on these clips. Easier for my old eyes to tie on fluoro leaders to. The Mustad snap eyes are pretty small. I found this new one on Amazon.com. Pricing is attractive as well. Here's the link:

    Have you actually bought and received these? The seller has a pretty low customer approval rating, and i do know people who never
    received their items bought from vendors in China.

I find that the size #2 works best for 1/32 - 1/16 oz. jig heads. I've used this same size on the 1/8 oz. heads as well, with no problems. The smallest size #1 will float a dry fly. Good quality....dependable.
