HighnDry,

The Lindy Swivel Clip you have in your Tackle Direct is exactly what I use. Barrel Swivel on one end and you slide your loop knot for your snell on the other end .

Thanks wallee13! I ordered up a couple packets yesterday and as soon as they arrive I'm going to put together a couple of these.  I'll probably experiment with wrapping them around a short length of pvc with two rubber stoppers on the ends. Perhaps that can effectively mimic the tackle keeper that you had at Copia? It's worth a try before I go off and buy one. We'll see.

I use a  “Tackle Buddy” to hold my wrapped spinner harnesses and Slow Death rigs. I put 1/2 oz and 3/4 oz waliking sinkers inside in one end and Lindy swivel clips that are put into a small worm harness bag and then placed inside the other end of the Tackle Buddy. There are 2 end caps on the Tackle Buddy. Simple way to store your Lindy Rigging setup. 

The Tackle Buddy is available at Cabelas and other Tackle stores. There is also the Tackle Tamer snell holder available but I prefer the Tackle Buddy.

HD,
Save yourself the trouble and get that Tackle Buddy.
I'm big on the DIY stuff and tried the pvc pipe and all you wind up with is a big tangle of Lindy Rigs.

Those ridges on the TB keep the lines separate and the soft rubber lets you embed the hook point to keep the wrap tight.

Solotripper is spot on. Cabelas has Tackle Buddies for $5.99 and I see Sheels has them for $3.99.  Well made and better than anything you can make including pvc.

I'm waiting for the Lindy snap barrel swivel thingys to arrive. Then I will snap a picture of my raw materials. Sort of a "before" picture. Once I get these things together, I'll snap a second photo of them wrapped around my tackle buddy toy.

Lindy snap swivels finally arriving today. I've had my dining room table littered with lindy rig materials for the entire month, it's time to put these things together. Now, if the ice would only melt...

I finally started making my Lindy rigs this evening. I don't know what took me so long. Perhaps it was the lakes freeing up a bit in the Twin cities. I took a before picture of most of my supplies-- pretty boring stuff and I'll do the same once I get them all tied.

I'm making them all 36" in length. Two red, two hammered silver and two hammered gold #4 colorado blades. I'm probably making a lot of mistakes but it's part of the learning process.
