Power-Pro® Braid & Leader Material 

Power-Pro®, Pro-Leader, Magic Line & Fluorocarbon

Power-Pro & Backing Line

Power-Pro® Braid

Power-Pro® is recognised as the best Super Braid on the market. The Ultra Strong Spectra® Fibre uses Enhanced Body Technology™, to create an incredibly round, smooth and sensitive line, that does not fray like so many other braids. Unlike older style Braided Lines, Power-Pro® doesn’t bury in the spool under tension either. The near zero stretch factor comes into play when contact with a running fish is immediate and hook hold worries are a thing of the past. Unbelievable strength to diameter ratios - over 3 times that of the best monofilaments - 0.36mm Power-Pro® is equivalent diameter to a 15lb monofilament – yet has a BS of over 60lbs! Add to this near zero reel memory and unbelievable abrasion resistance and you have the ultimate all round line. Now available in 3 colour options for Carp, Predator and Saltwater fishing.  

Lure Fishing

Low stretch Power-Pro® has long been associated with excellence in Lure Fishing circles for both Pike & Saltwater Game species. Continual casting of Large Plugs & Lures, whether for Predatory Pike or hard running GT’s is the ultimate test for tackle. Any inherent flaw will soon be found out and the last thing you want is for that flaw to manifest itself, when you have just connected with that fish of a lifetime! Coupled with the low stretch, not only will you feel every twitch and turn of your lure, but more importantly, you feel even the lightest knock, resulting in more hook-ups. With Power-Pro®, lure fishing with 100lb BS line is not uncommon, which ensures that your favourite lure stays attached to the line, even after hours of heavy casting and if you do snag up, the chances of recovery are vastly improved – you’ll straighten out a big treble before you break the line !  

Saltwater Fly Fishing

Ever more anglers are going destination fly fishing for exotic Saltwater species and anyone who has hooked up with a hard running Tarpon or Bill-fish knows the importance of plenty of backing on your spool. With a large Sailfish or Marlin running hard, a quarter of a mile from the boat, the deciding factor in success or failure is staying in touch with that fish – period. This is where Power-Pro® is in a class of its own. Hundreds of yards of line out of the rod tip has a tremendous drag through the water on its own – without the added problem of an angry gamefish on the end of it. The ultra low diameter of Power-Pro® reduces this drag to the minimum. Less line drag – less chance of the hook pulling out. The round cross section prevents the line flattening and burying in the spool – a problem associated with many inferior braids, leading to line snatch, or lock-up and lost fish - allowing the angler to concentrate on what is happening down at the business end.

Pro-Leader
Armoured Pro Leader is manufactured from a continuous fibre Dyneema Core with a braided stainless steel outer sheath. Pro-Leader is softer, thinner and stronger than conventional wire leaders with no memory, which gives a more natural action to the fly or lure. This added flexibility means Pro-Leader can be knotted, doing away with bulky crimps and if the leader is kinked, it can be easily straightened by pulling through the fingers, as you would a mono leader. The ultimate “bites” for any type of predator fishing whether for Saltwater Bluefish or Pike.

Available in 5Kg, 8Kg, 12Kg, 25Kg & 45Kg breaking strains on 3m

spoos.

  • High knot strength, with conventional knots such as blood knots
  • Good elasticity and recovery
  • UV & temperature stabilised high-tech formula
  • Water repellent resin coating helps maintain line strength and transparency, whilst resisting abrasion

  • Sinks at a controlled rate
  • Invisible in water
  • High knot strength, low diameter
  • Good abrasion resistance
