Ragot Maquereau is a nylon filling line available in diameters ranging from 0.35 mm to 0.50 mm. Each diameter corresponds to a specific breaking strength and spool length. The thickest size offers a breaking strength of 16 kg and a length of 180 m.
The Maquereau line starts at 0.35 mm, with a length of 360 m and a breaking strength of 8.1 kg. The 0.40 mm version offers 280 m with a breaking strength of 11.2 kg; the 0.45 mm version offers 220 m with a breaking strength of 13.2 kg.
The 0.50 mm line comes in 180 m and has a breaking strength of 16 kg. The available length therefore decreases as the line diameter increases: these two criteria should be compared to the reel’s capacity before spooling.
