    What is the correct way to attch a blade bait to the line? Tie direct to line, use a snap, spit ring? Ive used them before using a snap swivel but I think there is probaby a better way

    The best way is to tie on a #1 or #2 snap. No snap swivel just a plain one.

    Exactly. Other methods will still get you the vibration on the “rip,” but you’ll have less of the up/down rocking motion you’re looking for with other tie methods. Good luck!

    A tiny snap or a No-Knot Fast Snap, then a small ball bearing swivel about 18″ up your line.
