Wow, this is all new to me! I feel like such a retard! Ever since I can remember I've always used a swivel snapped directly to my rapalas, and I use them quite a bit, especially on Strawberry. I've caught plenty of fish trolling or even casting that way, and I've never known the difference. I guess the action is still good enough to bring in quite a few fish. Maybe I would've brought in even more without the swivel. I just like the idea of not having to retie a know every time I change lures. I do the same thing with flatfish, kastmasters, and even jigs and plastic grubs! I'm such a failure at being a fisherman I guess. lol
Anyway, I guess I've learned something. I think those fast snaps from Cabela's might be just the thing I need. Maybe I'll have to give them a try.
