Best and Worst snap swivels for beginners

[WillCFish]

For saltwater use Stainless Steel and rinse them off like you would your lures, rods and reels.

I used to use brass snap swivels exclusively until I straightened a couple of them out on the Potomac, then switched to coast lock snaps connected to a stainless barrel swivel with a stainless split ring. Pulling a parachute rig and catching a 40lb certainly requires a lot heavier terminal tackle than tossing a bobber out in fresh water to catch a 2lb crappie.

i have straighted some swivels on big cats & cobia.... i still use the eagle claw cheapies tho....

i have 1000s of every size and brand ... SPRO makes the best inline swivels but other than that i will use the cheapies and loosen my drag a bit

I agree, Spro is great.

Sampo is pricey but worth the money to me.
