Pike Sized Swivels and Snaps?

I purchased swivels and snaps for a pike/walleye fishing trip and think I made a mistake?

I’m fishing 30lb braid and read I shouldn’t “oversize” my terminal tackle at the cost of impacting presentation.

I bought 30lb and 50lb rated snaps and swivels— they are TINY!

These were intended to be pair with 20lb 7x7 wire or 50lb mono.

Are these too tiny?? Do I need to go bigger??

Pairing with soft baits, Mepps 3#-#5, various jerk baits and whopper ploppers

Living in NYC and visiting family in Detroit, loved catching a $90 round trip to visit home for the weekend.

They were the only airline operating out of the vintage Marine Terminal. One bar-restaurant, one tiny Dunkin express and an off-brand Hudson News.

I hope the public can still access this historic building, a little treat for those flying on the cheap.

Short security lines and it felt like me and my fellow passengers were on a Manhattan bound 7 Train.

Filled my jacket pockets with socks and underwear so I could get by with a personal item.

Goodbye my Greyhound in the sky!

I was shopping for some ball bearing swivels and fast lock snaps- saw that Bass Pro brand was a pretty good deal—- Any experience on quality?

I was originally shopping tackle warehouse, but needed some things from BPS and this would get me free shipping!

Context: Fishing trip for pike and walleye in Ontario
