Nylon - monofilament line

Nylon - monofilament line

The nylon line is probably the most famous fishing line you can buy, but above all the most important part of fishing. Important properties of nylon are that it is stretchy, abrasion resistant and easy to use. The stretchability can be seen as an advantage as well as a disadvantage, as it provides extra slack when the fish drill, but unfortunately you don't feel everything immediately. Are you a novice fisherman? Then start with a nylon line.

Be the first to pay attention not only to the thickness, also the tensile strength, stretchability and color are important.
We recommend the following colors, diameters and tensile strength per fishery.

Carp fishing

Colour: clear / transparent, green or brown
Static: 0.25mm to 0.35mm, 8 to 10 KG
Rivers of France: 0.30mm to 0.40mm, 8 to 10 KG
Penfish: 0.22mm to 0.28mm, 8 to 10 KG

Predatory fish

Colour: all, with the flashy colours for spinning / throwing fish
Pike: 0.25mm - 0.40mm, 6 to 10 KG
Zander: 0.18mm to 0.25mm, 6 to 8 KG
Perch: 0.16mm to 0.22mm, 4 to 5 KG

Whitefish

Color: clear / transparent
Fixed rod: 0.08mm to 0.15mm, 1 to 3 KG
