I am not fond of the straight rope stringers myself and will not use the metal types due to noise (I also had a nice flathead catfish bend one metal clip open and get off :'( They are seriously tough). I like these but I cut most of the clips off. No sense in dragging along a bunch of clips you don't need (plus they get tangled). I also like that it is fairly lengthy and the fish have a chance to swim down below the boat. When you get to shore and want to keep them in the water the extra length is also nice.......stash them in some bushes though (In the water ;) find a little pocket, they'll be fine) and that will keep them quiet or else they will splash around a lot and will keep you awake while trying to evade Mr. snapper.
