APPLICATION & MAINTENANCE

How to Use:

Load the line evenly on your reel spool with light tension to avoid twists.

Match knots (e.g., Palomar or improved clinch) to the braided line for secure attachment to leaders or terminal tackle.

Adjust drag before casting based on target species and conditions.

Use steady retrieves to maximize sensitivity and bite detection.

Care Tips:

• Rinse with fresh water after saltwater exposure to remove corrosive residues.

• Dry fully before storage to protect line integrity.

• Avoid overfilling the reel to prevent line slap and wind‑knots.

• Inspect periodically for fraying near knots or guides.
