    Default Loop knot vs snap


    I find it takes too much time to change color and weight sizes on the boat.
    So I'm trying this snap on a few rods.
    (Only for longlining)

    Opinions?

    No problem here with snaps, use them for all my fishing.

    Wouldn't it work better with a swivel inline to prevent twisted line? How about the quick snaps they use for bass fishing to swap lures faster? I see no problem as long as it's the smallest snap swivel.

    That's the ones I was thinking if they fit the eye of the hook good!

    Between the gar and stripers (which I try to break off before either species wrecks my entire trolling setup) and the bushes I hang I break off WAAAAAAY too much to be buying swivels. I do like those instant snaps though, but as said, I wont use 'em.

    I would not put the fast snap on all my rods !!!! I would put the fast snap on just 2 rods that way you can swap 2 baits one each side of your spreads and find out which color the fish want !!!
