Product Details
The Cortland Master Braid Line is an excellent versatile line to keep on hand. This braid is constructed from high-quality gel-spun fibers to create a durable and tough super braid anglers can trust. The Opti-Con fiber spinning process results in a tight and strong braid, and the FiberTech coating stiffens the fiber to improve the handling features of the line.
On top of that, Cortland's ColorLast technology provides long-lasting color that doesn't bleed. Master Braid repels water, delivers long casts, cuts through the water with less line drag, and comes back dry. This line can be used with spinning or casting reels and in freshwater or saltwater. With all these great performance features, you won't regret getting the bulk size of the Cortland Master Braid Bulk Spool!
