I've had the same problem and fixed it. Here's some options.
Get a larger diameter tip. Get a smaller swivel. You can get a Spro Power Swivel rated at 80lbs and it is TINY.

Something else I found helpful at night is the following:

Make your leader a specific length, lets say from tip until your stripper guide. This way when its dark, whenever you see your lure getting close to the stripper guide as you are reeling in, you'll know when to stop because you are coming close to the swivel Hope this helps. It helped me greatly.
