The Ocean Record Shock Leader is a nylon leader line designed specifically for offshore fishing, providing superior strength to back up your record-breaking endeavors.
This nylon line is a model designed specifically for offshore fishing, and was created under the supervision of a leading expert in yellowtail casting games, with a completely on-site approach from planning to testing.
The system is easy to assemble, has an optimal hardness to prevent it from slipping out of the guide when casting, and does not interfere with the action of the lure, making it suitable for all types of fish, from casting games to jigging.
- Line Color[Misty Purple] ... It is slightly hard to see in the water, so it makes fish less wary.
Line material [Nylon] ... "Super Varivas Coating (SP-V)" reduces the water absorption deterioration that is unique to nylon lines and greatly increases durability.
Due to a special manufacturing process, the surface is soft but the center is strong. It is like a double-structured line, so it will hold up even if the surface is scraped. Its abrasion resistance is comparable to that of fluorocarbon.
- Line hardness [moderate flexibility] ... The system is easy to assemble and has the "optimal flexibility" that does not interfere with the movement of the lure.
Winding method: [Parallel winding]... Parallel winding is used to prevent the line from becoming crushed and to maintain the line's roundness, ensuring the line's inherent strength and straightness with stable quality.
Spool band with center hole: A spool band that holds even thick numbers securely. Equipped with a center hole, you can pull out the line even with the band wound.
- Line thickness [If the strength is the same, it is one rank thinner] ... For example, compared to "lines labeled 100LB", it is one rank thinner.
The benefits of being thin (easy to tie, the lure moves easily and is hard to see, and may affect distance) further enhance its other features.
It would definitely make a difference if you could simply use a 40-gou lure instead of a 50-gou lure. An easy-to-understand example is when your bait is small and you want to use a smaller lure, but the target fish is big.
To match the target fish, you usually need to use a thick leader, but using a thick leader with a small lure will result in poor action.
A thick leader is stiff and creates resistance, making it difficult for the lure head to penetrate when pulled. On the other hand, the thinner and more flexible the leader is, the easier it is to reproduce the lure's original movement.
