Another excellent presentation. I’m relieved that you use snaps on crank baits. So easy to switch presentations. Thank you.

Yep... as of last summer I started using ...
20lb braid
15lb floroclear leader
Micro Power Clips
AND ... I had the best season of my life ... what a difference!
Great 👍 Video 📹... Thankx

VMC makes a specific crankbait snap and that's all I use.

Great video. Interesting comment with removing the "O" ring on most crankbaits and jerk baits. The next question: What about "leaders" attached to those baits? Metal with snap included or Mono/Floro with a snap?

[jersey]

When using a snap with a jerkbait, do you also remove any split ring (both round and oval)?

[greghiday]

I also use snaps on chatterbaits. Works well.

Hello Glenn I'm Paul i was just wondering if you think you could make a video of what you're talking about the way you tie up your rigs for just say 5 different ones okay then i appreciate this video and I'll wait and see what you come up with.Have a great day today thanks.

Love your videos 😊!!! I change out all my split rings to snaps the minute I open the package. Conventional wisdom says keep the split rings but I/we know better, right? The only times I don't switch is on lipless. I found it affects the action.

I fish snakeheads in very heavy cover, and I use braided mainline to a fluorocarbon leader. Because of the leader, if I retie every time I change a lure, it would be a waste of leader, and it wastes time when retying lures. A small snap makes it so much easier when I am throwing out this lure then I'm throwing that lure, and it's easier. Never have trouble with algae or weeds catching on the snap, and adds an extra barrier between their teeth and my line

Awesome video. Was wondering your opinion on jerkbaits and a clip? Would it be same as crank bait?

[rodneygreen]

Thank You Glenn for your Sharing on Snaps.
The CHATTERBAITS have Snaps as Standard Hardware on them. Better than tying directly to the Lip/Blade on them. Right?
Take Care & have a Good Autumn/Fall Fishing Season.

I appreciate the tips. I have been attaching my snap to those circled split rings on all my cranks and what a pain for my big fingers. I’ll take them off and use just the snap from now on.

[shanesmith]

Thank you for this great information. What size snap do you recommend?

[ericsprado]

I'm taking a friend who doesn't use a bait caster. Spinning rods need a swivel. Will a small snap swivel work for her?

[roberte]

Great video! What size snap for a zara spook?

[FranklinHicks-qsgs]

What about glide baits and other jointed baits? Sebile?

[jones]

What about using the snap and split ring together???

[FrankDaTank]

I use a snap to make jika rig from time to time, but yeah mainly I use them in a ways you mention. Thanks for spreading the knowledge 🙂

[doughodson]

When you use a snaps on a crankbait, do you take off the split ring?

[Thumpaholic]

Thank you!!! I have always wondered about those circle 1s..
