KORDA SUBbraid, SUBline and SUBLeaders
SUBline -
This has been designed so that it is incredibly fast sinking and more akin to a fluorocarbon in that respect, but as it is a monofilament it still retains the attributes that can make it superior to a fluorocarbon in some angling situations. Not only is it heavy but it is also very supple, which makes it great for slack line fishing as it will literally hang down limply from your rod tip and lay over the contours of whatever is between you and your hook bait. In addition to that, it still casts incredibly well – far better than a fluorocarbon can – and is highly abrasion resistant, as well as having good knot strength.
It comes in a choice of different breaking strains – 10lb, 12lb, 15lb or 20lb - to cover everything from open water fishing in the UK to tackling snaggy venues for big fish abroad.
It comes in a choice of SUB Brown or SUB Green colours, on a 1,000m spool.
SUBbraid -
This is a super-fast-sinking main line braid that come’s in a stunning subtle SUB-green colour.
Aside from its unrivalled sinking properties, SUBbraid has no stretch, which means that feeling for the drop becomes even more advantageous. The braid transmits tiny lake-bed details back to the rod on the drop, and when pulled back, allowing you to clip up to a spot without getting the marker rod out of the bag! If you find yourself on fish in an unfamiliar swim, then being able to feel for that critical drop with absolute assurance is such an edge!
SUBbraid should be used with a leader of some description, to protect the flanks of our precious quarry. This can be the fluorocarbon, a length of leadcore or tubing sufficient to prevent the braid from coming into contact with the carp’s flanks.
SUBbraid is available in 15lb and 20lb and comes in 450m or 1200m spools
SUBline Tapered Leader -
If you prefer a more traditional casting leader then Korda have the answer, in the shape of the Korda SUBline Tapered leaders. They’re smooth, supple and taper from a low diameter that’s perfect for knotting to line of similar diameter, right up to the thick shockleader end that’ll take the brunt of the biggest casts.
Based on the already, best selling, popular Korda Subline, this range has been designed with the long distance anglers in mind. Available as standard tapered leader, or as a one shot spool of tapered mainline (designed for waters were leaders are banned).
There are three versions available: 8lb to 40lb, 10lb to 40lb and 12lb to 40lb. Each spool holds five, 12-metre leaders that can be cut down to suit the individual’s needs. Korda SUBline Tapered leaders are available in Sub Brown colour only.
SUBline Tapered Mainline -
Korda Tapered SUBline has all of SUBline’s fast-sinking, abrasion resistant-properties, but the line tapers into an integral shock leader at each end. No knots are necessary; if you snap off and lose one, all you have to do is wind the line onto a new spool to reveal the other!
Because there are no leader knots involved, the risk of ‘frapping up’ on big casts is massively reduced and there is nothing for weed to collect on or for a lead system to jam against.
Korda Tapered SUBline was designed for extreme-range casting, but the extra diameter also acts as a robust snag leader. Each tapering leader is 15 metres long, but can be cut down by a maximum of five metres for super-long range, when every last yard counts.
