Quick take
A 5-pound tournament-quality fluorocarbon line with superior knot strength and abrasion resistance.
Kureha's R-18 Fluoro Limited is a clear fluorocarbon mainline on a 100 meter spool. It is built in two layers from two fluorocarbon resins, aiming for a blend of softness and strength. Anglers who throw light lures for bass, trout or saltwater and want a low-visibility line will find it a fit.
