I got some made by Quick Swirl or something like that. Pretty good on topwater
but sometimes have issues with the line getting caught in the popping cork.
Comes with our without swivel. 140 lb. test. They were free, so I don't have any
issues with using them. But I think Norton is betta.

I use 12 lb to 15 lb test line with light reels and light drag. Not worried about them
breaking.
Try taking the cork off. You really don't need it with a topwater bait, anyway.

I use tonys or nortons. I had 3 quick swirls break from different packages and lost over 50 dollars to them. Plus the quick swirl customer service sucks.

I can't believe it happened again!!

I hooked another fish with a Tony Clip. I open this reds mouth and saw the Manic Mullet just laying loose in the fishes mouth.

Crazy!!!!

Quick Swirl clips are at Dailey's. I've used one on the Kick A Mullet, sure makes it a breeze to change baits. Tony's clips have the ball bearing, great for spoons. FTU in Houston has a large selection.

I can tie a knot faster than most can swap a bait on a quick clip....

Friggn midget majician But I've seen him do it. Clips are for many reason's an advantage to sum of us that have lost the abilty to use our fingers espescially when they get cold. I've yet to straighten a quick swerl 140 lb test.I quess I've not caught a big enough fish Anyway to each his own poison.
