Daiwa J-Braid X8 Braided Line – 550 Yards Multi-Color
Daiwa J-Braid line is a complete lineup of high-quality 8-carrier braid made of the finest materials from Japan. 8 strands of tightly woven fibers make for a perfectly round profile. The result is a much stronger, softer, and smoother line that is more sensitive and farther casting. J-Braid is one of the best quality and value braided lines on the market.
Additionally, J-Braid Multi-Color is ideal for deep drop fishing and trolling because the color changes every 10 meters so you can easily track how much line you have out.
