Platypus fishing lines - Australia's strongest since 1898

Platypus Fishing Line: Australia's strongest fishing line since 1898

Fishing Line Classic™

Platypus Classic™ is a great value line featuring a combined balance of high strength, abrasion resistance and durability.

Enhanced by a lubricated finish for friction free casting and a low memory formula, reduces "set in" found in lines that twist and tangle.

Platypus Classic™ utilises a radically different colour enhancing system that has a very high refractive index which gives it the ability of taking light from its surroundings then disposing it into microscopic particles.

This solar dispersion makes the line invisible and gives you that extra advantage over your toughest opponent.

Advantages of Platypus Classic™

  • Unbeatable value
  • Outstanding reliability and durability
  • Colouring has a high refractive index for increased camouflage, making your line invisible
  • 100% Australian made, owned and operated
