Thanks BF. I've had small wire slip around and out of rings. The "Spoon Loop" was the cure to this problem but it is kinda ugly. I usually add a swivel to the split ring on a spoon to MAYBE help with line twist and would guess (note guess) that the thicker wire of the swivel would be less likely to run around the split ring.

Honestly, I am sure this doesn't happen often or somebody would have come up with a sure cure.

OK, the "Ole Lightbulb" just came on. I wonder if a little J-B Weld on the ring would cure the problem? I love J-B Weld.
