Vibes

 Hi guys, first time posting!!

 

I bought about 10 new vibes after catching my first rainbow on 1 and spending the rest of the day tying them on other peoples lines only to have them lose it after a couple casts in the weed.

 

My question is how strong are the tiny metal clip things they come with?  I hope to catch several species with them and might even use them for stupid big stuff, but they look so thin that a good sized bream would be able to break them.

 

Edit: the metal clip on the top not anything to do with hooks

Thanks in Advance

Yeah as Matty84 says, you get what you pay for. If you buy the cheap $1 vibes on ebay the first thing you have to do is change the rings, hooks and the clip as there all rubbish. Still works out much cheaper than buying the better brand vibes though.
