And you have caught a daytime sword fish? I havent seen you post any just asking... As i see it when I look at the swivle I can see it may be possible that when the fish is changing directions it may be possible for the loop crimped into the end of the bait leader to be able to catch the swivle and open it... Who knows what the heck is going on down there with a 20lb pullin one way the fish pulling the other then the boat pulling another....
I just know I will never use a snap swivel for my bait again....Crimping takes 2 seconds and I know its strong
