Changing lures

Changing lures to find the color of the day can be frustrating especially with some of snaps on the market today. Some are very hard for me to open and i have to use needle nose plyers to open or shut!!!
I was wondering if any one has found a "easy" or "quick change" type snap that works good for them. Any recommendations out there?????
THANKS

I use "Fastach" type instead of snaps.
Much simpler and easy on the fingers.

I almost always use vmc duo-locks, but this past weekend I ran into a few that I had to pull my needle nose pliers out to open and close. I thought I was losing it, and I know my vision isn't what it used to be, but then I thought maybe it was just a bad run. Your message now has me rethinking it!

No Bill, 11 years sober for me, so any difficulties I had wasn't related to rum, bad or not!!
