Betts i can answer a few, yes you can tie a snap to braid i would use the Palomar knot for that. The fluro lead i find very beneficial because it is nearly invisible in the water. So a 2' - 3' lead is what i use.

I know that using a snap is for your benefit in changing lures, but just remember the more hardware you add on the line the more chance for something to snap. I lean more to a longer fluro and a perfection loop knot for the lures.


Agree 100% with this recommendation .
Look up double polomar knot
Stronger , less slip potential than standard polomar when tying direct to braid

Betts, I tie a snap swivel to the Braid, I prefer Power Pro. I use fluorocarbon to tie rigs that i can quickly attach to the snap swivel and use a 2 to 3 ft length of fluorocarbon with a swivel on one end and a power clip, kind of looks like a paperclip, on the other when using jigs and other lures like the spoon you showed. Hope this helps, good luck.
