Breakaway BB clips

#1 Post by JOHN LYNCH »

Does anyone out there use breakaway BB clips? They are a clip that you attach to an impact lead that allows you to clip a bait down either side of the lead. Designed for use with a bomber or wishbone rig.

Do they work?

Thanks dbrock, I should of never doubted breakaway. Anywhere in Ireland stock them. Don't want to have to send away for them.

ive been using the breakaway imps lately and have had huge satisfaction with them...seem basically foolproof and with larger hook baits such as whole mack fillet or squid i have found thaty dont unclip during flight which impact leads sometimes do
