Does any one use corkscrew/spiral swivels as their main terminal connection from leader to lure. I tried some out last year due to the fact that I have had muskies hit the head of lures and unhook both regular and staylock snaps. They seem to work great besides being a little timely to switch lures. Wonder if anyone has had any negative experiences with them before I start making all my leaders for spring. I got the open water Muskie itch way to early this year!!!!

I would think they would work well. I looked them up online after reading your post and they would seem to solve the problem of having snaps open. I would also like to hear some input if anyone has any. I lost a big one a few years back that straightened out my snap. I'm assuming it was opened by the fish or I forgot to close it when switching baits.
