Abstract: A connecting system for attaching a gangion or snood to a fishing line having a connector with a tubular body having first and second opposed ends, forming a slit. The body has a cut-out forming a tongue with a central aperture for receiving the loop of a swivel. The connector is free to rotate on the line and is held against axial movement on the line by a pair of stops having teeth that are crimped tightly into the line to prevent their axial movement.
