Spro Power Swivels
Spro Power Swivel is a brutally strong swivel that can take as much torment any Big Game fish could give. The Ball Bearing Swivel has never failed me or get salted up. This Power swivel is perfect for leaders because the small profile of the swivel itself will not accumulate sea weed or any other vegetation..

230 lb spro pwr swivel
I havent yet tested it but spro swivels & swivel snaps are all I use. They always exceed their lb test ratings which I do check with a digital scale & a spring scale before rigging up with them. I REALLY like their ball bearing swivels for the heavy stuff & I discovered their gold chrome bucktail jigs (1/2, 3/4 oz) as recently as 2 yrs ago which are in my opinion the most productive jig Ive EVER used for rock cod & lingcod. I will say the above sizes mentioned are a lighter gauge hook so I ordered 1 oz & 2 oz for my next trial (big lings) after a conversation with a very helpful expert on the Spro staff who broke down which hks go in which jig sizes. When using this jig I put the hook right between the eyes of a squid head (head & tentacles only) this adds lots of movement, eyes, scent & bulk which I believe weeds out the smaller fish (when you are dropping down 240 ft). I want to try the larger sizes (up to 8 oz). They hold up too to multiple hits from big fish - well tied...
