What line test? I always double that for swivel size.
Don't use a shiny gold or silver one. |

The size is not so important as even the small ones are more than strong enough. Per the previous comment, buy the black ones as the mackeral dont strike them as much.

I always use a regular swivel and tie a palomar knot with a very long tag end. I attach the float to the long tag end and tie leader to the other end of the swivel.
That setup does not require special tackle and I have to tie one less knot. |
