Here's my own snap configuration you wont find it at stores,this is the most reliable way I found to be the most effective way to never loose a fish..

On some lures such as poppers it may be difficult to attach your snap so I add a round ring to the lure to make it easy to attach to,or on pencil baits which the eye is kinda thick and difficult to open the snap to get it around,you can add a round ring to as well..

I've tried every clasp in the market,I'm sure the ones in your link I've tried and have all failed at some point,mine may be difficult to attach and you may need split ring pliers but its the most reliable way I found,try it!
See for yourself,if I can do it so can you!
