Any time

Anything thats easy to put on will facilitate an easier chance of pulling off - however there are clips like the OTA quick clips from studio ocean mark that have very high stregths - quite a ways from normal for their size - been using them for both casting and jigging more and more

BTW - Welcome aboard!

Really appreciate the reply and info. Tight lines!! ​@@TheFishingKit

The hooks that came with those are ok. it's the smaller ones that you need to worry about.

Like, if the rod specs has a required line of 20-30lbs (either braid or mono) will the knots, swivels or rings' lbs be close as to the rod's line? Or it doesn't matter at all? I am a newbie in fishing and a lot of questions in mind.

firstly, there are a few systems that exist, the western system uses lb/kg etc. it is to balance your tackle. like with a gun, you can't use a rifle bullet with a pistol. There is no clear reason exactly why the western system uses kg/lb on everything - it is a very old system that no one seems to be able to explain. But the end point of all this is BALANCE. you can not use a very heavy sinker on very light rods so for some rods, you use sinkers and lures that are fit for them. A max 20lb rod takes a max of 20lb line, the casting weight is indicated on the rod as well, for lures and sinkers. It helps guide you to what reel the rod needs, the sinkers you can use and lures etc. Split rings, solid rings, swivels etc are also part of the equation to a certain extent, but at the end of the day, you are looking at rod, reel, line balance. if you hit the numbers right, your combo will function better and wont break.

@@TheFishingKit I see, thank you for this content and response. Very informative to all the anglers out there. 🙌

20oz is quite big. You can put another set on too and leave the one on the bottom if it is allowed to use two sets of assist hooks in your waters.

@@TheFishingKit thank you very much TheFishingKit ! for your advice! If you have time one more question: I bought daiwa certate 19 3000 xh around 8 ounces , would that be too light for a daiwa Overthere 911, 10-60 gram surf / light shore rod? Or should I pair with okuma 4000 which is 10 ounces? The Overthere is 175 grams.

@@muskyvictim would be too heavy. 10-60g is your range would be 0.35oz to 2oz. If you over this range, you stand a chance of breaking your rod.

@@TheFishingKit so 3000 lt certate or 4000 it okuma ? thanks again !

@@muskyvictim the 4000 would fit better.

snaps are weak points and another thing to worry about. No matter how much it says, there is still a chance it would fail..now you have all the other stuff to worry about and adding another one to the equation doesn't make sense. The way I do things is simple - I see where the weak links are and try to make that better...or get rid of it.

I agree with you , but here in Jubail (SA) too many fishermen use them. But I thought I might be wrong. I trust your experience ...thanks .👍@@TheFishingKit

A lot of people use them and if it works for them great...but I've used them and had a few failures and that was enough to put me off. Just don't want to risk things anymore. @@e4ezzat

What exactly are you referring to? I don't get your comment.

@@TheFishingKit they can not tie a fishing knot

You would be surprised how many people fish and still go to a shop to have their knots tied. Here in the UAE, there are people calling themselves "pro" or "experts" but have other people tie their knots. KZfaq has tons of video, but...well...that's just how some people are.

@@TheFishingKit yes you are right nev
