Bait Clips are used to help streamline your rig when casting.
This helps to give you extra distance which is often quite crucial
to get into the next gutter or channel where the bigger fish are.
You
just clip your baited hook onto the bait clip and this holds your bait close
in to your rig while casting. It stops your bait from flapping and spinning
around in the air causing resistance. Your baited hook automatically
releases on impact with the water allowing your bait to present itself perfectly
once in the water.
