I use these 2” ones for just about everything including snare extensions as it will hook to those 600# fishing swivels.

They’ll fit through the 1/4” hole in a trap swivel too, so I can hook a chain and drag to anything.

Snug 'em tight. You will never have a beaver compromise one.

Use the 3/16".

I had to reread this, and I realized what I have been doing wrong… hooking directly to the swivel body or the rivet hole is wrong even though I got away with it. The link should probably always go through the eye of the rivet that is in the end of the swivel for a more direct pull and no binding. IMO.

So you're saying put a "blank" j hook in the end of the swivel, close it, and attach your quick link to that J hook? Can't say I've ever done that


Gotta live up to the nickname...

I attach one link of chain to the double swivel then put the quick link thru that link of chain...for a direct in-line pull....that doesn't bind.
