JOF 8 Strand Ultra Strength Braid PE Fishing Line 500m – High Sensitivity and Toughness for Distance Casting

This JOF braided fishing line delivers high breaking strain per diameter, giving anglers the edge when targeting larger fish or fishing in heavy structure. The 8-strand braid construction offers exceptional toughness while maintaining a smooth surface for reduced friction during casts. With super sensitivity that transmits the slightest touch, you can feel bottom structure and strikes instantly. Available in a wide range of line numbers and colours, this 500-metre spool suits everything from freshwater predator fishing to inshore saltwater applications.

Features and Construction

Built from tightly braided PE fibres, this line balances strength, abrasion resistance, and handling ease. The level profile ensures consistent lay on the spool.

8 Strand Braid Design

The eight-strand weave creates a round, supple line that knots more reliably than lower-strand-count braids. This construction increases surface smoothness, enabling longer casts and reduced noise through rod guides.

Precise Diameter and Breaking Strain

Each line number is matched to a specific diameter and breaking strain: for example, 1.0# is 0.16mm and 20LB (9.1kg), while 8.0# is 0.50mm and 100LB (45.8kg). This allows you to select the exact strength needed for target species and conditions.

Floating Characteristic

The line floats, making it ideal for topwater lures and techniques where you need to keep your bait near the surface. It also aids in detecting delicate bites and weedless presentations.

Uses and Placement

This braided line performs across multiple fishing environments, from freshwater lakes to coastal estuaries. Its high sensitivity and strength suit both casting and spinning reels.

Freshwater Predator Fishing

Use heavier line numbers (4.0–8.0#) for pike, zander, and large perch where abrasion from teeth and snags is a concern. The thin diameter allows deep-diving lures to reach their intended depth.

Saltwater Inshore Fishing

Lighter line numbers (1.0–3.0#) work well for bass, flounder, and sea trout in clear inshore waters. The floating nature helps keep soft plastics and poppers on or near the surface.

Long Casting Scenarios

The smooth surface reduces friction through the rod guides, enabling longer, more accurate casts with both lures and baits. This is especially useful when fishing wide rivers or open surf beaches.

Benefits and Buying Value

A single 500-metre spool provides multiple refills for most reels, offering great value for regular anglers. The line’s durability under repeated casting and hooksets means fewer changes during the season.

Sensitivity for Better Bite Detection

The near-zero stretch of braided PE transmits vibrations directly to your hand, so you feel the faintest nibble or a change in bottom composition. This can lead to improved hook-up ratios.

Low Maintenance and Reuse

Braided line resists water absorption and does not degrade as quickly as monofilament when stored properly. Rinsing with fresh water after saltwater use will extend its lifespan.

Why Choose This Product

With nine colour options, seven line numbers, and a 500-metre length, this JOF braided line offers flexibility to match your fishing style. The 8-strand construction delivers a good balance of strength, smoothness, and sensitivity at a practical price point.
