| InvisaSwivel from Aquateko |
Swivels are essential terminal tackle for all sorts of fishing, but too often they're heavy and obtrusive. That's not the case with
Aquateko's InvisaSwivel. Aquateko's engineers discarded the usual brass and steel components, substituting a non-metallic fluorocarbon polymer. The result is a self-lubricating swivel that is clear, flexible and neutrally buoyant. And because no metal is used, corrosion is a non-issue.

The InvisaSwivel even has a place in fly-fishing. Though fly rod spoons are proven fish-getters, they come with a price. Their twisting action can make a mess of any leader, and the extra weight of a standard swivel is prohibitive. That's no longer a concern with the lightweight InvisaSwivel.
The InvisaSwivel is available in 12-pound- and 25-pound-test from any
Temple Fork fly rod dealer or
TFO spinning rod/casting rod dealer. MSRP is $4.99 for a pack of five swivels.
