can you test the ta clips and the breakaway clips on there?

see if theyll hold true to suggested weights?

the samauri is soo slick I'll never try another uni/clinch. knots were untying before the line broke....time to just use the palomar

here's pics of the backlash clips...I did this by hand

Apparently there was some clip testing before I got there.

Those were "tested" at my house, I hooked a needle to both ends and pulled....the 50lb clips give reeeeeeally easy.

I would feel confident the big clips will never straighten out on a bass, up in the air about the mediums, and the smalls I'd never use for anything other than FW bass or schoolies.

Personally, I only use Breakaway Spin clips and I've never had one fail
