Quick take
An 8-carrier braided line with abrasion resistance for freshwater and saltwater casting and spinning.
This 20 lb braid in light gray is an eight-strand line of ultra high strength polyethylene, made in Japan and spun with Izanas fiber. Its light gray color stays visible in low light while blending into the water. Its abrasion resistance is rated at four times that of other braids, which suits anglers fishing structure and rocky cover on a 150 yard spool.
Best for
- Light-tackle saltwater species
- High-visibility fishing in low-light conditions
- Anglers who value abrasion resistance
Skip if
- You prefer monofilament or fluorocarbon
- You fish heavily weeded areas
Strengths
- 8-carrier Izanas material is 4x more abrasion resistant than typical braids
- Light gray color visible in low light but blends in water
- Smooth lay on spool reduces tangles
Trade-offs
- Braided line is more visible to wary fish than fluorocarbon
- 150-yard spool is suitable for reel backup, not primary line
- Braided line can cut hands during casting with spinning reels
Fishing fit
- Water
- Freshwater
- Saltwater
