Re: knots
Yeh, there are a few on the market specifically for lures....just cant think where I had seen them recently.
If/when I remember, I'll let you know.
Perhaps look at the classifieds in one of the angling magazines, might find something in there maybe aswell

Hi Ya Derek,
just use a small strong clip swivel shouldn't hamper the lure too much.
I could be wrong though! As rare as that is!

Re: knots
I use the clips from Hiro. These have no swivels and work a treat.
Why not join Cobh SAC - looking for new members....

Re: knots
Jim Hendrick recommended these to me recently:

The Hiro ones are also good but their shape can make them diffiuclt to get into the loop on poppers with a deeply concave nose. (That's the lure's nose, not mine.)
