At J & H Tackle, the fishing snaps you buy online that we carry are from the manufacturers Tide Rite and Tsunami. Fishing snaps, like rings and clips, are used to attach lures and weights to your line. You can do this in a wide variety of ways, if you like to do your own rigging. The more experience an angler has, the more he or she likes to do their own rigging of lures and weights. Usually the rigging is not done while on a boat or standing on a rocky shore, but rather when the angler is in their garage and has the time to prepare several types of rigs for the upcoming fishing.

Fishing snaps for sale look like elongated ovals, and are of course made to withstand both fresh and salt water fishing.  Snaps, as with everything else, come in different designs, from “cross lock” snaps to coast lock snaps to duo-lock snaps. Which ones you use depend on the type of lure you’re using and the type of fishing you’re doing.

Fishing snaps prices won’t break the bank. The snaps come in different test weights, from 25 lb to 90 lb. It’s always better to have a test weight stronger than what you think you’ll need.  

Fishing snaps are cheap but well made, and come several to a pack. When you do your own rigging, you can learn on your own, you can watch your fellow anglers in action, or you can see if your local sporting goods store can give you information on classes on rigging and fishing in your area.  There are also example videos at such sites as YouTube.

Depending on what type of fish you are targeting, your rig will need to be at a certain depth, anywhere from the top of the water column all the way down to the bottom, and the knots you tie and the terminal tackle you use will need to be appropriate for each situation.

Fishing snaps you buy online may seem like a simple piece of equipment, but as with all pieces of terminal tackle, they are essential.  Lines, leaders, lures, sinkers, all are connected to fishing snaps depending on the type of fish you’re targeting. So knowing the tendencies of your target fish – where they are to be found, the colors of lures that attract them, the different motions that attract them at different times of day, all this is knowledge that the avid angler must have.
