Lots of good reviews for fly fishing....

Works great for changing out flies. I've even used them for snelled hooks

I did get a couple sizes of the fast snaps to try but not for my flies but for my jigs. Haven't tried then out yet so I can't tell how well they work or don't work.

 I used them years ago;; they worked ok. guess I just fell out of practice using them

I have a little difficulty tying knots in fine tippet material.  I used to be able to count the hair on a gnat's back, anymore... not so much.  I wonder if these would make fly changes easier for those of us who have become chronologically visually challenged. :)

NEVER TRIED EM BUT I'VE SEEN EM AND LOOK LIKE A GOOD ALTERNATIVE TO CONSTANTLY TYING ON NEW BUGS ........

If Joe likes em... well, Im gonna try to find some.

I've used them and find them so small they are hard to work with .

That sounds perfect, then, John. For the dinky bluegill flies that interest me, small is the operative word.

Im gonna try em, at least.

Have a thin needle nose pliers handy.

Done and done - I have plenty!

I like them I have used them they work almost like a snap swivel
