Abstract: A snap to be utilized with fishing tackle or for other purposes which is made of a singular wire which is bent at a focal region so as to define a first end and a second end. The first end has a bracing arm which integrally connects to an eye region, angularly offset from the bracing arm, shaving a radial portion connected to relatively straight brace and locking regions. The brace region of the eye is integrally connected to three loops which wrap around the bracing arm. The second end is provided with a lever arm and a latching hook with the latching hook being angularly and laterally offset from the lever arm. The latching hook is formed by an upward region and a downward locking region. In a closed position, the latching hook is placed over the brace region of the eye such that an end point of the locking region of the latching hook curves and extends laterally inward away from a plane which defines the locking region of the eye so as to form a durable and secure locking mechanism.
