I bought all that Academy had a couple years ago and they stopped carrying them. I can’t remember what brand they were and I can’t locate anything exactly like them. Broke off my last one yesterday evening.

Anyone recognize them and know where I can get a bunch? [Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]

I just realized that’s not a great pic. It’s a corkscrew not a snap but it only makes one turn.

What do you catch with such little bitty gear?


Obey lawful commands. Video interactions. Hold bad cops accountable. Problem solved.

If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

I would check Amazon first. Roys probably has some.

The little roller swivel isn’t the important part. The corkscrew is the part I really want.

I’m currently using Norman QuikClips, which work but are a pain to swap lures with and require pliers to do so. With the single turn corkscrews you simply turn it 3/4 of a turn after hooking the snap ring on a crankbait and VIOLA!, you’re ready to rock. Easy to do in a pitching boat without getting a hook in your hand and keeps your line from getting twisted.

Pretty sure BPS shows them in that link above. Probably 3d page.

Kid, so that is a swivel attached to the line side, right?

Looks similar here, 2nd page of the BPS link above:

Man, I gotta get some of these. I love corkscrew swivels but have only seen them in the larger sizes for deepwater fishing.

They’re the business for pulling plugs. Only thing I use them for.

It’s tough to buy them online because it’s hard to tell how big they are.

But I’m pretty sure the link Roger provided has almost exactly what I’m hunting. They’re high at about a buck and quarter apiece from there but if I can’t turn up any others I’ll order from them. Thanks Roger.

If not the one above you could use an Owner CPS spring and thread it onto the swivel of your choice.

Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.
