They are AWSOME! But you don't need to spend the money!! I find the plastic coated steel spinning type leaders last a lot longer then the "bite tippet" which seems to kink-up after a few fish/knots... I can never seem to un-kink even though there are supposedly a few techniques out there to do so.
These leaders already have a swivel, but if using "bite tippet", yes I would use a swivel as hinging and turn over are a non-issue when fishing for pike.
Welcome to the club! Mine happened after fighting a 25 lb GT for an hour. Which eventually healed, but over compensating at work caused my left elbow to developed Tennis Elbow and now it's the one that's bothering me...
I'm 3 months into my 2nd injection! I find k-tape works (have your physio show you how to tape it) with a Tennis Elbow brace.
From what I've been told it can persist.
Good luck I empathize with you!!

There are Gap Lake and Grotto just outside of Canmore/Exshaw. Of course there is Minniwanka (sp?), next door, but it's big water, not sure if it under the same regs.
as previously discussed on here and researched by Jayhad, the access is (or was) restricted by the developer not the city, unless things have changed?!
