Product Information
Full details
The Avid Outline Ronnie Swivels are designed for dedicated carp anglers who prioritize efficiency and concealment in their terminal tackle. These swivels are specifically engineered to facilitate rapid hook changes on Ronnie-style rigs, ensuring you spend less time rigging and more time with your bait in the water. While they offer exceptional performance and a stealthy finish, they are best suited for anglers already familiar with the intricacies of Ronnie rig construction.

FAQs
What size is the Avid Outline Ronnie Swivel?
These swivels are provided in a standard Size 11, which is the industry standard for most carp fishing rigs.
How many swivels come in a pack?
Each pack contains 10 individual swivels.
What is the benefit of the anti-glare finish?
The anti-glare finish prevents light from reflecting off the metal, making the rig much harder for carp to spot in clear or shallow water.
Can these be used for other rigs besides the Ronnie rig?
While specifically designed for Ronnie rigs, they can be used in any setup where a high-quality, quick-change swivel is required.
Do I need special tools to change hooks with these?
No, you do not need special tools, though using a baiting needle can help position the rig components if you are using shrink tubing.
Troubleshooting
Swivel rotation feels stiff
Rinse the swivel thoroughly in fresh water to remove debris and check for any pinched line or tubing obstructing the joint.
Hook link keeps tangling
Ensure the shrink tube covering the swivel eye is not too long, which can restrict the natural movement of the hook.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Stealthy anti-glare finish reduces underwater visibility
- Simplifies the process of swapping hooks on the fly
- High-quality construction suitable for large specimen carp
- Compact size compatible with various rig tubing and leaders
Cons
- Requires specific knowledge of Ronnie rig knot tying
- Limited to Size 11 which may not suit all custom rig requirements
- Smaller size can be fiddly to manipulate in cold or wet weather
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up these swivels, thread the swivel eye through your chosen rig material—typically a stiff monofilament or fluorocarbon boom section. When attaching the hook, ensure the swivel eye is fully seated into the hook's eye before applying your shrink tube to secure the connection. These are compatible with most standard size 11 hook link accessories. To maintain performance, rinse the swivels with fresh water after fishing in silty or sandy conditions to prevent grit from entering the swivel mechanism. Always check the integrity of the knot at the swivel eye before casting, as repeated friction can weaken leader materials over time.
