Quick take

Post-processed 8-end braid for marlin, tuna, and big game offshore trolling and bottom fishing.

FINS XS Big Game is an 8-end braid in an 80 lb test with 150 yards per spool, made in Erlanger, Kentucky. Its firm, round profile suits trolling, bottom fishing and casting for marlin, tuna, wahoo, grouper and amberjack, plus heavy cover in freshwater. Anglers who want more backing capacity for long offshore runs will appreciate its thin diameter.

Best for

  • Offshore trolling for marlin, tuna, and wahoo
  • Deep water bottom fishing for grouper and snapper
  • Heavy jigging in thick cover

Skip if

  • You fish freshwater or light saltwater
  • You prefer monofilament or fluorocarbon

Strengths

  • Thin diameter allows exceptional reel capacity for long runs
  • Post-processed for roundness reduces line twist
  • 8-end construction delivers shock and abrasion resistance

Trade-offs

  • 80 lb strength requires heavy conventional reels
  • Orange line visible to fish in clear water
  • 150 yard quantity may be insufficient for offshore runs
