riggings LongChuck

The new Long Chuck main line has been specially designed for long-range fishing and will add extra metres to your cast compared with a standard mono. It has very little stretch to allow more rapide compression of the rod blank and, as well as having very low water absorption, it also helps to feel the lead from a distance or in a crosswind.

This low water absorption also allows the line to remain light and stay in the air longer, helping to reduce lead drag during flight, but the most important factor is the fact that the line is transparent - adding dye to a mono line increases weight, changes the molecular structure and creates more stretch, meaning coloured lines don't cast as far.

Long Chuck also features a high ratio of breaking tension to diameter, which significantly reduces drag and line weight compared with equivalent breaking tension - 10lb is 0.27mm; 12lb is 0.30mm; 15lb is 0.33mm; 17lb is 035mm and 20lb is 0.40mm. It is supplied on 1,000m spools.
