the Atom shown was specifically made as a flaptail experiment. a few were sold like that on the Cape and Rhode Island back yrs ago. The mold was modified-one at replacement stage of wear- to take the swivel so as to work better. Bob even made some 56-talking atom popper- in flouresent orange a-white-blue and white and red /yellow for a while in the early 80's. They worked pretty good but didn't sell very well.The ist ones he gave me had a siwash 5/0 tail hook with the blade hung on it. The jr's were designed with the swivel in place. I beleive Bob was copying a Jerry Sylvester that he saw being used and working well.Ron
