Quick take
Eight-strand braided PE line with high density for minimal stretch and excellent abrasion resistance.
The X-Braid Upgrade X8 is an eight-strand braided line with a 25 lb rating, spooled at 200 meters. Its WX braid construction and white markers every three feet help anglers keep track of how much line has gone out. It suits anglers who want a braided main line in the 25 lb class for gamefish.
Best for
- Light to medium casting on lakes and rivers
- Jigging and bottom fishing
- Anglers who want no-stretch line
Skip if
- You need a quiet lure that doesn't spook fish; braid is louder on guides
- Your rod guides are not smooth
Strengths
- X8 construction provides straight, strong line
- High density pitch increases abrasion resistance
- Superior straight strength compared to traditional braided lines
Trade-offs
- Braided line twists guides; a small swivel helps
- More visible in clear water than monofilament or fluorocarbon
- Casting distance may be reduced on light setups
