Those snaps seem like a good idea for a guy like me that has trouble seeing to tie the knots. Like has been said, the spit is very important. One thing that hasn't been said is the thing about how many twists are best when tying a cinch knot. After a lot of tests, that my friends at Fish Tech. did along time ago. ( before floroucarbon) The best numbers are 6, 6.5, or 7. Spit on it and pull it slow. This seems to work for me most of the time. Does anyone know if it is different with the flourocarbon leaders and tippet? I still do the knots the same.
