  1. Hi All, I just started getting into fishing this year. Today I tied my 3/8 oz. chatterbait to a size 12 Eagle Claw barrel swivel. It got caught up in some weeds/lily pads so I jerked it to get it free, only to find half of the barrel swivel remaining on my line. It really bummed me out because it was a brand new chatterbait (the first day I used it). So, I have a few questions. Are Eagle Claw barrel swivels known for breaking? I don't think I'll trust putting anything else on it now. What would be a more durable alternative? Also, I figured a swivel might be needed because the movement of the chatterbait could cause line twists. Is this an incorrect assumption? Do I need a swivel at all? Thanks!
  2. Alright so I was strolling through the fishing isle at Wal-mart and had an idea. The barrel swivel with the interlock snaps could save a lot of precious fishing time by diminishing the need to retie on lures every time you want to change. But then there's also the scary possibility that it could scare off that smart, picky bass because of the extra metal you add with it... What are your thoughts?
