j-braid x8 braided fishing line 🎣 DAIWA – Ultimate Strength & Smooth Casting! 🏆🐟 Braid is complemented by its thin diameter – but don’t be fooled Daiwa J-Braid X8 Braided Line,

The forged hook has a 5X short shank and a reversed hook point for improved hookset

Solidly built and pretty much indestructible, this reel suits big, hard fighting fish like carp and barbel, the control that backwinding brings for me, is a bit like playing a fish on a centrepin, it's something you need to experience, and with the reel running on two stainless ball bearings, it's something to be enjoyed

Their mid-range Tatula and high-end Steez reels are legendary

Would be interested in seeing it in one of your comparison tests

I love livewells because they promote responsible fishing in areas that have conservation laws and rules about how many fish you can keep
