What line to use Spinning

Sinking-Braid is engineered for slow sink to get light or unweighted lures or bait into the strikezone fast and keeps them there, with nothing to inhibit a natural presentation.

Reduced "line belly" between rod tip and hook ensure more positive hook sets.Find out more about Sinking-Braid

Super-Braid is useful when lurecasting and trolling for fish as the low stretch allows quick reaction to catch that fish.

Super-Braid's fine diameter allows you to work lures deeper with less water resistance. Four time stronger than steel and unaffected by sunshine or heat. Find out more about Super-Braid

Super-100 is the line when you need a fine diameter to catch those spooky fish. Super-100's fine diameter allows your lure or bait to be worked deeper with a more life-like presentation as there is less interference than a thicker line. Find out more about Super-100

Pre-test is the ultimate in game line, ranked consistently in the top 10 lines that IGFA world records are caught on each year.

A very tough line with engineered stretch to cushion strong runs and endure long battles with trophy fish.

Pre-test has over 500 World and Australian records. Pre-test is IGFA rated. Find out more about Pre-test

Game Leader is the final word on supple leader; pliable yet tough enough to withstand those knocks and bumps from those bruisers from the deep! Find out more about Game Leader

Hard Alloy is a leader made with special blends of nylons to maximise abrasion resistance. One of the first leaders to be manufactured matte rather than gloss to eliminate glint from sunshine which can spook fish. Find out more about Hard Alloy
