Slot of line me twist is doe to static or memory try reel magic or tangle free. Also spray silicone lube helps. When I fish weightless trick worms And I start getting line twist I take the worm and hook off and I strip about ten yards off and cast it like a buggy wip four or five times this generally removes the line twist. Spray reel magic on the line and eyes of the rod that s will let you cast ten or more times without the eyes freezing up.

I don’t know what kind of line you use to get the line twist but I have never had a problem with line twist and never have I used a swivel on any other device tie line to spinner directly.

Good swivels really do have their place using spinners. I have never lost a fish due to a swivel coming apart; can't say the same about a good knot though!!!

There are Swivels and then there are Swivels. I have used Swivels and Snap Swivels since I was a kid in the early 1940's. However they are not the catchall for everything. When I troll a Wiggle wort (Flatfish type of lure) for Steelhead and Salmon in the river, I read their instructions on connecting your line. They were adamant to not use a Snap swivel because it would affect the motion of the lure. What they advised was using a UNI knot which was like a tight slip knot. They said do NOT cinch it down on the eye of the lure, rather than, leave it with a small loop and not tight clinching on the lure eye. They said after playing a fish, the knot may have cinched down on the eye, but all you had to do is slide that knot open again and get fishing. With spinners in a stream if I am going to be changing the spinners often to different sizes or colors I use a small Snap Swivel, if not just use a UNI or in old days clinch or improved Clinch if using mono. If using Super Braid then UNI. For big fish like Sturgeon, I use a heavier Swivel and one that has a clip wire that has a bend on the end to keep it from pulling out. my .02
