The Gardner Covert QC Hook Flexi-Ring Swivel is designed for serious carp anglers who require rapid rig changes without sacrificing strength or presentation. These size 12 swivels provide a versatile connection point that allows for free movement of the hook, making them an excellent choice for Ronnie rigs and helicopter arrangements. While they offer immense utility, users should note that they require specific sleeves or beads to ensure the hook remains securely locked on the crook during the cast.

These swivels are best suited for use with most hook patterns up to size 6.
Yes, you tie your hooklink material directly to the flexi-ring using a standard knot suitable for your chosen hooklink material.
While primarily designed for pop-up rigs like the Ronnie, they can be used for bottom bait presentations if you prefer the convenience of quick hook changes.
Each packet contains 10 swivels.
The anti-glare finish is durable, but like any coated terminal tackle, it may show minor signs of wear after heavy use in abrasive environments.
Ensure you are using a tight-fitting sleeve, such as a Covert Tungsten Ronnie Sleeve, to lock the hook eye securely against the swivel body.
Check the flexi-ring for grit or weed debris. Rinse with clean water and ensure the ring is not pinched by the hooklink knot.
To use these swivels effectively, always ensure you have a compatible locking component, such as a Tungsten Ronnie Sleeve or a piece of shrink tube, to cover the crook once the hook is attached. This prevents the hook from slipping off the crook during the cast or when retrieving a rig through heavy weed. When fishing over silty bottoms, ensure the swivel is clean and free of debris to maintain its smooth rotation. Because the finish is anti-glare, it is naturally more susceptible to surface oxidation over long periods; rinsing them in freshwater after a session and allowing them to dry before storage will extend their lifespan.
