Tasline elite fishing braid review

I first discovered Tasline in the early 2000s when it was grey-black and made in New Zealand. I used it extensively offshore while working on platforms and oil rigs, catching mahi-mahi, tuna, and other pelagic species. Recently, I revisited Tasline and was impressed by its specifications. The line is thinner than other brands, yet stronger. For example, my 40lb line actually has a breaking strength of 57lb, allowing for more line capacity.

I appreciate the feel of Tasline Elite braid; it's supple and smooth, lacking the bulkiness and stiffness of lines with added coatings. This quality allows for a tighter pack on the spool and increased strength, enabling me to increase the drag when fighting fish. Many Tasline users are surprised by how much more line they can fit on their reels, as demonstrated in the accompanying photo, where 360m of 80lb line compares to 600m of 80lb (which is actually 117lb according to the label), ideal for deep dropping.

Independent tests have confirmed Tasline's impressive diameter-to-breaking strain ratio, achieved through high-grade fibers and meticulous braiding techniques. This attention to detail ensures the highest quality braid. I've chosen Tasline Elite Braid for my reels for these reasons: more line capacity, increased strength, and trust in the braid's ability to land the dream fish, whether it's a bream, flathead, snapper, kingfish, tuna, or marlin. Tasline offers a range of sizes and spool sizes, including a hollow core 12-strand for serious anglers.

Full disclosure, Tasline looks after me well as a sponsor.

Tight lines, and see you on the water.
