I'm going to try paper clips and see how I get on with those. I've found that impact shields and the like really cut down distance on the cast. The simpler you can make your rigs the better I think. |

i use cascade swivels with srt springs on all my clipped rigs. for the bottom i use a breakaway IMP. the imps are pretty fool proof and ive never had one not release. |

Have always used Breakaway relay clips rather than impact shields. Seem to be fairly trouble free and I like the way one can slide them to accommodate the snood length. |

I must confess that I have never used them as I don't seem to have a problem. I do however when using a running leager put the bottom hook on one of the grip wires and it has never failed to release on impact.
