A fishing swivel is a small metal device consisting of a pivoting joint in the middle, and two metal rings attached at the ends. The metal rings are connected to the joint with an anchor inserting into the joint, which allows them to rotate freely in any direction
The main advantage of fishing swivels is that they prevent line twist when you’re fishing with a lure or a rig that tends to rotate in the water. The most common examples of this would be inline spinners and metal spoons, which rapidly rotate during retrieval, and thus quickly end up twisting your fishing line if you use them without a swivel
A second advantage provided by fishing swivels is that they often come with a snap attached to one end, which makes it very convenient to switch out your lure or leader line quickly while fishing
