DETAILS – 300 m polyethylene (PE) backing – 80 lbs (36.3 kg) strength – 8 strands, 0.45 mm – 5 fluorescent colours each spool, 6 0 m each colour – Single colour change – Highly visible – Extremely strong and durable

  • Strong 80 lb PE backing for big fish
  • Durable 8-strand construction

Cons

  • Not a leader material; intended only as backing
  • Color changes may be unnecessary for short-fight fishing
