Notaro - I use long leaders because I like to cut back an inch and retie after every couple of fish when the large are hitting hard or there are toothy critters around. Better to be safe than be sorry, the next fish you catch could be your trophy, why chance it?

Yes, I tie direct to hook for eels (is there another way?) and snap swivel for plugs, jigs and other surf or trolling gear. The only reason I would use a barrel swivel between leader and main line is for tube and worm.
