X8 8-strand braid in Purple. 10–100 lb test, spools from 150 to 1,500 yards.
- ✅ Longer, smoother casts — round 8-strand weave means less friction through the guides
- ✅ Quiet retrieves — no "zipper" noise like 4-strand
- ✅ Zero stretch, high sensitivity — feel light bites and get faster hooksets
- ✅ Strong knots — tight X8 weave holds knots well under load
- ✅ Low memory, abrasion resistant — lays flat on the spool and stands up to rocks and cover
- ✅ Freshwater and saltwater
🎨 Why Purple?
- Stands out — a bold color that's easy to watch above the water.

🪢 Rigging Tips
- Knot: we suggest a Palomar knot for tying braid directly to hooks and lures.
- Clear water or line-shy fish: add a fluorocarbon leader.
- Cutting: braid is tough on regular clippers. Braid shears make clean cuts.
