Trace or not ?

[nad03]

I've asked this question before but i'd like a few more opinions please.I do a lot of pluggin and spinning,mostly in the local river mouth but occasionally from the beach or rocks.I usually attach my lures to a snap link which is attached directly to my mainline.Should i be using a trace of any kind.Bass are a very aggressive fish but there are no teeth involved.The river mouth is quite snaggy though,mainly old trees and the odd rock.

Personaly I would say no as you are only using gram weights not lb weights.
