We used to get small plastic rings from haberdashery wholesalers, then cut at a 45°angle with nail clippers and put them on a 1oz lead and slightly squeeze the lead loop to grip the ring.

You can easily make a backlead clip using run rings as as in the picture.
Cut as shown with nail clippers, tie lead to the small bit and they work great.
They rarely fall off but if weeded or snagged they can open out.

Anyone know where I can get the little backleads with the white PTFE/plastic rings (like a little c-clip). Used to be quite popular and essential baits used to sell them but cannot find anywhere
