I have tried it both ways and settled on the snap swivels with a 60" leader. I feel it allows the spoon more freedom of movement. The spoon has to be not only able to flutter but to flip over and flash both sides the top and the back without twisting the leader. I am sure that there are others who use just the snap.

I am still very new to trolling techniques. I started about 4 years ago. I generally fish solo until the weather warms...then my wife goes as well. Anyway...I have often wonder how to duplicate the "back" depths you here on Ch.79. I know most of the charters are using big boards (Skipper, Eric, etc.), but have always wondered about the base for the dive curves. Guess it was not as dumb of a question as I thought. Should have asked it 4 years ago! With Wakina's input...I realize I am fishing much higher in the water column than I thought. Will adjust next trip out, which will be father's day with my little girl. Good luck to all. As always, thank you again for the help!!!
