The No10 swivel is a useful size for scaling down the end tackle. Can be used instead of a No8 swivel to create a free running setup with lead clips and for joining braid to mono lines. The unique couflage coating cuts out unwanted reflection that a standard swivel creates.
The best anti-tangle stop for all leads & feeders.
Swivel Stop Beads are an effective anti-tangle stop for all running lead and feeder rigs. The rubber bead is designed to house the top of the barrel of the swivel and leave the bottom ring protruding and free to rotate. Using a five turn Grinner in the following reel lines the knot will fit right inside the bead.
Available in three sizes:
Adding to the range by popular demand, these swivels have one very large round eye and one normal size one. As with all our swivels, they come from the best Japanese manufacturers and have our trademark 'anti glint' dull, grey finish.THREE MAJOR USESFirstly, they make very smooth running rigs when used as a replacement to the swivels found on the top of our leads. They were originally designed as part of the running rig kits. But, after too many enquiries to mention, we had to add them to the range. The second obvious use is for helicopter rigs. The large eye will rotate better if a large bead is used, whereas a smaller swivel would bump around the larger beads circumference. In other words, the large eye will slide effortlessly around it. They can also be used at the top of a link for the marker float - the large eye will allow the line to pull through that bit easier than a standard swivel. No doubt you will find other uses we have not even thought of yet.
A tiny ring swivel was needed to complete the range and is ideal for creating a hinge in a stiff pop-up rig, made famous by the great Terrence Hearn himself. That rig is regarded by many as a big fish rig and is usually fished as a single bait or over small amounts of offerings.We would couple it with our own Wide Gape pattern of hook and one of our small rig rings. Once the short, stiff pop-up section is tied we recommend you pull it very tightly over the steam to take the angle out of the stiff material as it leaves the inside of the eye of the hook. This steaming makes that last section much straighter and the hook will then stand more upright ready for action. In more recent years, the small ring swivels have been used on a new Rotary rig, where the ring swivel is tied via the ring to end of the hook link. The point of a longshank hook is then slid through the eye of the swivel at the other end. The hook bait is usually sliding on a small rig ring between two float stops - the top one on the bend of the hook, the bottom one half way down the shank. Fished in conjunction with a pop-up, this rig is said to be almost impossible to eject and big fish men like Dave Lane have used it to great success.
