Shimano's new Ocea Fluorocarbon
The perfect leader for everything from bream to bluefinFluorocarbon leader material like the Ocea Leader provides a number of advantages to discerning anglers dealing with wary fish under difficult fishing conditions.
It’s 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 structure has a soft core for knot strength, a hard outer shell for abrasion resistance, and then a fluorine coating to provide a smooth surface finish.
The new fluorocarbon from Shimano comes in 50m dispenser spools with a line retainer in breaking strains from four through to 100 pounds (2-45kg) -- perfect for everything from estuary bream up to live baiting for small black marlin and cubing for yellowfin tuna.
