Assists tied with this https://www.ebay.com/p/VARIVAS-SS-As...451/1745670101
I use a hot air gun on the heat shrink and keep it at a fair distance, just close enough to get the job done. I have tried hanging the trailing hook off a swivel and my diary shows I lose more fish than the assist set up. Haven't got a clue why that is.

Yeah maybe there is slightly more shock absorption in the assist cord - or being an extra couple of cms away from the lure decreases the impact of underwater head shakes or maybe the fish swallow it just a bit deeper and the hooks find better purchase. What ever it is - if it aint broke..... |

Still waiting on the singles to arrive - but at least my tow points now have swivels. Thanks GH

More for the purpose of having something to tie off to that doesn't have all the sharp bits a split ring has. Aiding with any line twist problems is just a bonus.

Yeah I usually use lure clips/snaps so the line cutting wont be a huge issue but there are occasions where tying straight to the lure would be handy ie bightoffs from tailor or bust offs while casting and you want to get straight back into them with out rummaging around for a snap
