Quick take
A 16-strand hollow core braid designed for knotless leader connections using a splicing needle.
This 16-strand hollow core braid in Hi Vis Yellow, rated at 130 lb test on a 1,200-yard spool, has an open center that lets you splice a leader on without bulky knots. Its thin, round profile and low-memory build suit trolling, jigging and bottom fishing, where line that casts smoothly and stays sensitive matters. Pick it when you plan to join a monofilament or fluorocarbon leader to your main line with a splice rather than a knot.
Best for
- Trolling and offshore jigging with large fish
- Anglers who want smooth, strong wind-on leaders
- Saltwater bottom fishing with high-breaking-strength mainline
Skip if
- You prefer knots to splicing for leader connections
- You fish areas where visible high-vis line spooks fish
Strengths
- Hollow core allows clean splicing without bulky knots that catch guides
- 16-strand construction offers smooth roundness and strength
- Near-zero stretch for direct power transfer to lures
Trade-offs
- Splicing requires practice and a splicing needle to execute smoothly
- High-vis yellow works well for visibility but may spook wary fish
- 130 lb test is heavy; better for large saltwater species than freshwater
