Product Information
Full details
The PikePro XL Quick Change Swivels are designed for serious predator anglers who require a secure and rapid method for swapping out lures, traces, and weights during active fishing sessions. By utilizing a heavy-duty cork-screw mechanism, these swivels provide a robust, locked connection that ensures your terminal tackle remains firmly attached under high-stress conditions. While the XL size offers exceptional strength for demanding scenarios, users should ensure their lure eyelets are large enough to accommodate the swivel's gauge before heading to the water.

FAQs
Can I use these swivels for sea fishing?
Yes, but be sure to rinse them thoroughly with fresh water after every session to prevent saltwater corrosion.
Will these swivels open during a fight?
The cork-screw design is engineered to stay locked; provided the lure eye is properly seated in the bottom of the coil, it will not pull open.
Are these suitable for light trout fishing?
No, these are XL-sized swivels designed for heavy-duty predator fishing and would be too bulky for delicate trout setups.
Do I need special tools to change the lures?
No tools are required; they are designed for quick manual changes by hand.
How often should I replace the swivels?
Inspect them for any signs of metal fatigue or bending after catching large fish or snagging; replace if the coil becomes deformed.
Troubleshooting
Lure eyelet will not thread into the swivel
Ensure the eyelet diameter is large enough to fit the XL gauge wire; if the eye is too small, use a compatible quick-clip adapter.
Swivel appears stiff during changeovers
Check for debris or dried bait residue in the spiral; rinse with fresh water and allow it to dry completely.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Extremely secure locked connection
- Significantly faster tackle changes
- High-tensile strength for predator species
- Reliable alternative to standard safety clips
Cons
- May be too large for delicate or light-wire lures
- Requires proper technique to thread eyelets into the spiral
- Not suitable for extremely small lure attachment points
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure the swivel is attached to your main leader or wire trace securely via a high-quality knot. When attaching your lure, slide the eyelet firmly past the initial catch of the cork-screw. These swivels are compatible with most standard wire traces and predator lures that feature a standard eyelet. To maintain longevity, rinse the swivels with fresh water after fishing in brackish or saltwater environments to prevent mineral buildup and corrosion. Store in a dry tackle box to keep the steel integrity intact for future sessions.
