Have you folks ever had a swivel break? I am talking about the ring to were the lines are attached. The ring acutally sheered. Sad I am wondering if this is a common accurance?

Thanks

My swivel did not break its just not working. Anybody have a recommendation for a swivel that works as a replacement? Blowhards recommendation might work but sounds like it might be overkill?
