I myself like to use the micro swivel. and i use lead wrap above the swivel. I have personally found that with the lead wrap you can easyly ajust your weight quickly and dail in on the weight better.i have also found it tracks better on the bottom and cast better with the hinge point spread out.Split shot hinges badly i think and sucks to take off... For me i dont like the weighted swivels. i find that when i do get hung up... Its the swivel!!! and i lose all 3 bugs instead of losing 1 fly. Just my observation!!! Got to love no more line twist!! Swivels rock!!! i also like to use a black swivel, to try to keep my shotting and swivel as invisible as possible !!!
