Hi Hook I would use a snap swivel for using spinners so it does not twist your line all up.

ClearDrift. I would have to disagree. The only part of a spinner that actually rotates, is the blade. The body components remain stationary. So adding a swivel is just one more connection point, that eats up the "feel" of the hardware, and the riverbed. But they still fish with swivels... I just like to feel everything that is happening at that treble!

Russell, I just tie mine straight to main. But I do know a spinner killer who runs braid, and 6 foot, mono shock leaders. He doesn't use a swivel though. Just a nail/blood, or double overhand knot to attach the two lines.

the fish can not hear it - it is all about landing and not losing - I switched to braided 2 yrs. ago after 20 yrs . of mono and have never looked back - of course never use it for leader - but what ever floats your boat !
