I have been using semi fixed running leads if thats not a contradiction in terms The Fox run rings with a recess in the buffer bead to clip it onto, best of both worlds

Tend to fish bolt rigs (safety leads clips) for the simple reason that they make fish hooking simple, and are simple to use. However I do use running rigs from time to time, and like the way you get totally different takes, and how there is the confidence factor. Whether it's true or not is to be disputed.

i use em both me for different situations, if it's a water full of hungry fish that are feeding like world's going to end, i'l use a balt rig with a big lead, if the fish are in a more finiky mood and line shy, and a slack lines needed i'l use a runner with a shock bead

running rig 99% of the time lead clip or helicopter for xtreme range tend to use an inline with the lead core on the outside the swivel pushed in backwards and a tail rubber to hold it all neat i find the lead is disposed of a lot quicker when fishing into weed or up against snags.
