Jerry Brown Spectra Line and Leader Reviews
Line and Leader > Jerry Brown > Spectra - manufacturer's page | Details: Spectra?fiber braided fishing lines have been around for quite some time and have enjoyed widespread acceptance in the past few years, despite the fact that the Spectra?fiber is opaque and not the best for the presentation of a bait or lure, therefore requiring the use of a less-visible monofilament or fluorocarbon leader.

Rating -  Reviewed on Jun 04, 2006 by Ralph Marinson from Oakland Park Wasn't thrilled I wasn't thrilled with this line at all. I used the 130 hollow core spliceable line I prefer mono instead. I used it for about a year or so the line never frayed and the wind on leaders held well but the no stretch has been a problem for me particularly with swords and kingfish. I wouldn't recommend this line for swording or kingfish, however it is great for trolling dolphin and wahoo. I despooled my 50s and put the line on my penn kgs. I think this line is ideal for deep droppin as well. Next month I will be buying my first deep drop setup and I am having that reel spooled up with the 200 hollow core. |
