silverstreak Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 One thing I hate while fishing a spinner is the line twist you get after a half hour of casting. Problem solved.....the new Riverwood spinners come with a no twist swivel already attached. Happy casting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Dang... you're so happy with Riverwood's stuff you should do like the guy that bought Remington Razors... or do you already own riverwood? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCTFisher9120 Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Maybe I don't notice it but those Blue Fox spinners do a great job avoiding the line twist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bare foot wader Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 I find far less of a problem with line twist when using a braid line....if i get snagged and break off or even once or twice a day I'll cut the spinner off and let the current take my line and run the twist out of it....i don't mind the inconvenience to avoid using a swivel......

BillM Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Dang....sorry your so upset with my post irishfield but these are the products that have gained my confidence.And no, I am not the president, just a card carrying member. Right... Every single post of your contains a riverwood float, or riverwood worm or something else with a riverwood stamp on it. Crap or get off the pot, but don't try to pull the sheets over our eyes. And BTW, you'll still get line twist, swivel or no swivel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanook Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Putting a slight 20deg. bend in the shaft of the spinner also helps. But nothing is cast in stone LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kemper Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 huh, looks like my post on the topic got yanked? Cant imagine why, maybe i just never hit post. What I was going to say was that I love riverwood gear, I run the floats, worms etc BUT the perfectly cleaned and placed riverwood stuff in these reports is a little annoying and spammy if you ask me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAC Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 I hear you all to on the spam issue and have been thinking the same since these posts came on like gang-busters over the past week and a half or so. Here's my take; I don't use spinners for steelhead very much, but when I do it's Blue Fox 90% and Mepps the other 10%. I have no reason to change because they work very well and always have. For floats and there are many, I stick with Drennan primarily due to quality. For worms Berkley or Exude and pink is definitely not the best colour all the time. I have never used Riverwood anything and don't feel compelled to because I'm very happy with the production of what I have stated above. So if you aren't sponsored by them or selling for them, you should consider it. The topic of this post is no line twist spinners and I would have to agree with MikeTheBassFisher. Peace!

Twocoda Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 maybe the solution would be to post in the classified section ???? then we can still read and see the production of the product without offending anyone... personally when it comes to chucking lures ...i use Berckly snaps 30 #.....they are very small and i dont recall ever having line twist unless i run out of them Nice fish BTW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverstreak Posted May 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 A barrel swivel attatched to the shaft of a french bladed spinner also = no line twist. Very popular out West. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are a representative of Riverwood... i would rethink how you are presenting yourself to the fishing community matey.... it does not look good from my standpoint.

MJL Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 Nice fish. Good job on the spinner. I'll be dreaming of riverworms, riverfloats, river this and river that, don't you worry Riverwoodies?

Raf Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 ball bearing swivels do a much better job avoiding line twist compared to barrel style. they are a bit more $$$ however, and nothing will avoid it altogether. not sure i understand the big deal of putting a swivel directly on the lure, you guys run fluoro/mono leaders anyway right?

silvio Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 Not sure if your Jim silverstreak. Anyways I know his post aren’t spam and to be honest riverwoods are one if not the best floats out there. Yea he advertises his products in every post but the mans just trying to make a living and at the least he’s supplying top notch products. enough said leave the man alone. By the way silverstreak I would appreciate more yellow top floats at the hwy 7 and keele angling specialties in the 4 gram size (long and lean) tell tom there for silvio I've been breaking toms you know what for them for awhile lol. PS I am not joking about the floats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
