Nylon

The Nylon category brings together monofilament lines used as mainline, leaders, shock leaders or tapered leaders depending on the technique. The range covers nylon for trout, predator fishing, bass, saltwater, surfcasting, lure fishing and bigger fish, with short spools for leaders as well as longer lengths for filling a reel.

Nylon remains useful for its suppleness, stretch and forgiveness. It absorbs head shakes, helps reduce hook pulls on nervous fish and feels comfortable in situations where anglers want a line that is less rigid than some braids or fluorocarbons.

For trout, small lures and finesse fishing, a regular, discreet and supple nylon is often preferred. For predators, bass and lure fishing, the choice depends on diameter, breaking strain, stretch and desired visibility. In saltwater or surfcasting, nylon shock leaders and tapered leaders help absorb powerful casts, abrasion and stronger fights.

Before choosing, check diameter, breaking strain, spool length, colour, stretch, abrasion resistance and intended use: mainline, leader, shock leader, tapered leader, trout fishing, bass, saltwater or big fish. The Hook’up selection includes brands such as Daiwa, Varivas, Asso, YGK, Yamatoyo, Toray, Momoi, Gunki and Illex.
