Hey!  I need someone’s help!!  I can’t remember where I got my original idea to purchase these little “snap-like” items, but I bought some.  Instead of the “traditional” snap, they tie on your line and they have a “swirl”.  You turn your lure like 2-1/2 times and it stays on.  Actually, they are much stronger than a “traditional” snap. 

My problem is that I can’t find what I did with them!!  I actually hadn’t used them for awhile (because I was doing the “tie-on” method), but thought I’d break them out again.  Does anyone know what I’m talking about??  I can’t believe I didn’t bookmark the website when I ordered...must of been asleep at the wheel on that one!  confused

PERFECT!!  The Quickswirl was the answer I was looking for!  The only reason I stopped using these before was when I removed my lure from the Quickswirl, there was no way to attach the line to my rod.  I like to tie-on, but sometimes, I like the “quick change” ability the snap.  After bending the heck out snaps while catching larger fish, I’m anxious to get back to this beefy tool!  THANKS AGAIN XRANGER!!
