Braid fishing line provides optimum strength with minimal strain, resulting in increased sensitivity for fisherman. Braid line is fantastic for battling aggressive fish because it has a lot longer reel life (if spooled and maintained properly). However, you may need a leader line because braid can be visible in the water, which will startle many fish away from your bait or lure.
When should I use braided fishing line?
Improved casting distance and low line stretch are two primary reasons braid line has become such a popular choice among both novice and seasoned fisherman in Australia. Braided line is composed of synthetic materials that provide higher strength while keeping a tiny diameter that allows it to fly and cut through water easier than monofilament line. Braid line has a long reel life if properly spooled and maintained. It is difficult to break and performs well in structured environments.
How long does fishing braid last until it needs replacing?
Braided line, like all fishing lines, deteriorates over time even if it has never been removed from its packaging. However, the shelf life of used fishing line is determined by a number of factors. Extreme heat and continuous exposure to sunlight can be extremely damaging to the quality and durability of your line. Line memory may allow unused and unopened line to take on the shape of its packaging, increasing the likelihood of backlash, wind knots, and a bird's nest. The good news is that braid lines have the greatest shelf life of any line type, often ranging from eight to ten years.
How many strands is best for braided fishing line in Australia?
Braided fishing line is manufactured from polythene microfibres that are extruded into strands. The most popular compositions are four, six, and eight strand braid, with the greater the number indicating a more compact line, while each has its own advantages. Four-strand braid line has the most abrasion resistance, while higher strand line is smoother and casts longer.
