Quick take
A 200 ft stainless steel braided cable rated for 150 lb, sized for replacement on Scotty downriggers.
This is a 200-foot spool of braided stainless steel wire made to replace a worn downrigger cable. Its 150 lb strength rating and corrosion-resistant steel suit trolling in both fresh and salt water. Anglers running a downrigger for trout, salmon or walleye can respool with it and get back to setting lures at depth.
