Overview
This small spool of 8-strand braid is aimed at light lure fishing: perch, trout, black bass and zander on small lures. An 8-strand weave generally gives a rounder, smoother line than a 4-strand, which leaves the guides more evenly and helps casting distance with light lures.
The spool holds 100 m (109 yd), in green, in the number of your choice: 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.5 or 2.0. About 42 g (1.5 oz) packed.
- On a standard-size reel, put some nylon backing on first so the braid reaches the lip of the spool.
- Join a fluorocarbon leader with a connection knot suited to braid.
Limits: the supplier states neither the diameter nor the strength of each number; if you need a precise value, choose a line that gives one. 100 m leaves little in reserve after a few break-offs. For pike, a bite-proof trace is essential.
