I would like to know which system, you guys prefer to use to connect your popper to the leader, I have been using a ball-bearing swivel, tied to the leader wiith an AG chain knot, and this is joined to my poppers by a split ring,
The other day, a pal of mine told me, he now uses just a split ring on the end of his leader, this is attached using a Kevlar wear sleeve and crimped, he connects his lures straight to the ring, He said it is more stream-lined, and I can see the advantage of not using expensive heavy swivel, but I wonder about line twist, What do you think?
