SHIMANO EX FLUORO OCEA LEADER

RRP: £7.77 - £32.99

PER SPOOL

Shimano’s EX Fluoro Ocea Leader is thinner than equivalent breaking strain nylon, highly abrasion resistant, doesn’t absorb water so it sinks faster, is clear in colour and, with its refractive index being pretty close to that of water, is therefore less visible to fish.

Ocea Leader’s structure is quite different too, in that it has a soft fluoro core for knot strength, a hard outer shell for abrasion resistance, and a fluorine coating to provide a smooth surface.

Available in 50-metre spools in 15 breaking strains from 4lb to 130lb. The 25lb line (pictured below) has a diameter of 0.406mm and retails for £9.99 per spool.
