sjk984 Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 I am haveing a hard time finding swivals for the connections on my copper this year. I am changing from nots to swivals because I just plain suck at splicing nots. i.e. to big, pull apart and look shady. Where can I get the straight sided swivals and what size do I need. I find 80lbs sampo regular swivals with the wire eyelets. I see most of the talk is about this swival that is straight with holes in the barrel instead of wire eyelets.Thanks Steve
Hotdog71 Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 I used a Size 8 spro swivel, #50. Works awesome. I got mine from Cabelas. Put it on with haywire twist with shrink tube over it.

Hotdog71 Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Don, that was the greatest suggestion. Thanks for sharing that with me earlier this year. I love the clean look as well as the function. Simply Awesome!
