Have one of Rally's clips with his halibut clip hooks on each side of the float on each trap so when a non-target gets caught you can find it and not pulled out.

Floats don't work well here unless you're trying to catch lots of rats then they're fine.

Those coast swivel clips are on each side, but I have went to a small spring clip with knurled nut for a lot of fastening now, for speed and ease with gloves on. Guantlets when rat trapping in the boat.
