I would like to get everyones opinion on this, since gamagatsu dosen't make a swivel, I believe Vision has the best swivel on the market. If you haven't tried them, Please do. You won't be disappointed.

well of course a sampo ball bearing swivel will be the best by physical and engineering standards, but at a buck or mor a piece you won't be using them driftfishing or hardware fishing the rivers unless you are Bill gates.
If you like the Rosco's , you will love the Visions, twice the swivel at 1/2 the price.
Shoot me a e-mail and I will send you a couple to try or pick em up at your local dealer.

I like the Vision's best. The only problem is, I cant find them around here. In fact I cant find much of anything around here.

Hey_yall,
I was saying I cant find anything that has to do with quality fishing tackle. You can find almost anything you want around here, If you look hard enough. What your taste? Llama? Sheep? Emu?(oh I ran that off already) Cattle? Chickens? Or if you are looking for a woman, I will tell you the secret pick up line for these parts. It is "Nice tooth Baby!" Now Im warning you to use that line with caution. laugh

Awwww, this kind of reminds of the Board of old-Superfly pimpin' one of his products. smile
Just kiddin' dude.

I will admit that the Vision swivels are the best ones out there for the money!! But when you need a heavy duty ballbearing swivel, nothing compares to the Sampos!

Vision rolling swivels and snap swivels. Better than the Rosco USA swivels and a lot more affordable.

I picked up some Vision hooks and swivels today and must say they do look like a quality product.

Joe or Justin, anywhere where I can purchase packs of hooks larger than 50-100 or is that it? Same question with the swivels. (I don't guide, just lose alot of gear!)

Dummy,

I know Tumwater Sports carries Vision products, but I don't know if they have the swivels yet or not. Shoot me an email and I'll see if I can hook you up. The swivels are great!
