    Question HOW DOES YOUR SWIVEL HANG? PICS

    BELOW IS A PICTURE OF SWIVEL ....ONE GOOD...ONE BAD....THAT..... FOR THE LIFE OF ME....I HAVEN'T A CLUE AS TO WHY ANY SWIVEL MANUFACTURER MARKETS THE DANG THING...IT IS WITHOUT A DOUBT THE ANTI-KHRIST OF ALL SWIVELS......THAT WOULD BE THE SINGLE RING BALL-BEARING SWIVEL

    DO YOU SEE WHAT I AM REFERRING TO HERE???LOOK AT THE FIRST PHOTO.......IT'S THE HORROR I TELL YA!


    I AM CALLING ON ALL TACKLE SHOPS TO WAKE UP...AND TO QUIT PURCHASING THE ANTI-KHRIST SWIVEL......I BET IT IS SAFE TO SAY 49 OUT OF 50 TACKLE SHOPS DO NOT EVEN KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT HERE....AND THAT IS SAD SAD SAD


    NO SWIVEL....I REPEAT....NO BALL-BEARING SWIVEL SHOULD BE WITHOUT THE "DOUBLE WELDED RING "..... 'CAUSE THE DOUBLE WELDED RING SWIVEL WILL NOT BIND UP WHEN THE GOING GETS TUFF!

    A SINGLE RING BALL-BEARING SWIVEL WILL GET ITSELF IN A BIND....DUE TO WAVE ACTION...FISH ACTION ..EVEN THE DREADED WIND....AND ONCE IT BECOMES UNDER PRESSURE WITH A SLOB FISH AT THE BIZNESS END......THE SWIVEL WILL BREAK ONCE UNDER PRESSURE WHEN IT GETS IN IT'S CANTED POSITION (SEE PICTURE )

    HELLO SAMPO...IT'S YOUR MORNING WAKE-UP CALL GET RID OF YOUR SINGLE RING BALL BEARING SWIVEL....

    BEING LONGTIME SUPPORTER OF SAMPO SWIVELS ....I HAVE PROBABLY PURCHASED 10K OF THEM IN MY TIME ....THE SINGLE RING IS NOTHING BUT A NIGHTMARE AND SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ON A BOAT.

    REMEMBER BAN THE BRA???? HELL I SAY BAN THIS SINGLE RING BANSHEE! AND BANISH IT FOREVER!

    WOW Marty, that is somehting a ton of us have probably taken for granted at one time or another. i promise you my tackle box will be spitting all the single ones out. just goes to show all ball bearing swivels are not alike.

    Good post BOX...I completely agree...Double ring is the way to go.

    If I might add, I also look for the # of twist on the snap. I prefer a snap that has multiple twist...I've had snaps w/ one or two twist open up on the high speed troll...I have yet to have a multiple twist snap open up on me.

    Good post and information Marty. I have wondered about this (and suffered from it myself) a few times. Had not figured it out though.

    Another of the myriad of reasons why we love coming to your world.

    Thanks for the info Box, looks like I'll need to do some tackle inspection before my next fishing trip.
