Tying to mono or clips
Just a question with regard to using rapala for sea bass should I tie each one on or can a swivel clip be used for easy changing.

Re: Tying to mono or clips
I usually use a swivel clip, just make sure it's a good brand so you don't risk it snapping and losing a potential good fish

Re: Tying to mono or clips
If I am sticking with a particular lure I'll tie straight on to my leader/tippet. If I am going to be changing lures regularly I use a clip. Usually I use an an egg clip or a Breakaway Mini Clip style. More often than not I'm using a clip.

Re: Tying to mono or clips
This has to be one of the best I have seen it comes in two parts and covers nearly every knot = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tb4Z9K8VYO4&t=26s
I have not fished in two years hoping to change that this year with anything ?

Re: Tying to mono or clips
Thanks a lot guys I will be trying everything in my box cos I have a few rapalas (not sure if they will be the right colours) but have got lots of pike and perch on them and I also have a mix of soft plastics. Worth a go and on the now reachable beach for me just to be out will be great.
