What size 3 way swivels should I order and what size snap swivels? I am just starting to fish the spider rigging method and need help getting terminal tackle together. What about hooks, line and sinkers?

I don't use swivels, myself. I run my main line thru a barrel sinker, then a plastic bead, then tie to a duolock snap. Main line is braid 17-30lb test. Jig/jighead is tied on a 12-18" leader line of 6lb test mono with a loop knot on opposite end. Loop knot is slipped into duolock snap, snap is closed ... and that rod is ready to rock !!
Pre-tied leader/jigs are wrapped around sections of "pool noodle" ... for quick access & change times when break-offs occur.
