Spinning Lines and Esters

High-quality spinning lines and esters form the essential connection between the angler and the lure. A correctly chosen monofilament ensures a natural presentation of lures and offers the necessary stretch to absorb the lunges of a fighting fish. In this category, you will find top-notch Japanese materials designed for targeted trout and perch fishing, as well as light all-round spinning.

The crucial selection criterion is the material itself and its stretch and abrasion resistance. While classic nylon lines stretch excellently and minimize fish loss, modern ester lines offer extreme sensitivity for tournament fishing on still waters. When purchasing, also consider the visibility above the surface, which helps with detecting subtle bites on sinking lures.

Nylon Lines

• Sunline Siglon V – a universal clear monofilament with a hydrophobic coating and UV protection. It excels in high abrasion resistance and reliably absorbs unexpected shocks during aggressive fighting, even in demanding tournament conditions.
• Varivas Super Trout Advance and the reinforced version Big Trout – premium trout lines featuring VA-G technology, which guarantees higher strength at a thinner diameter. While the basic version in a brown shade offers perfect camouflage for finesse fishing, the gold Big Trout variant relies on a soft surface finish for power fighting trophy fish.

Ester Lines for Trout Area

• Sunline Masu no Ito Ester Hard – a stiffer ester material that remains invisible underwater but glows under UV light above the surface. It ensures absolute awareness of the lure's position without visual pressure on cautious fish.
• Varivas Super Trout Area Super Ester – a competition material with minimal stretch for immediate bite detection with micro spoons. Available in an inconspicuous clear Natural variant or in a highly visible Neo Orange color, which significantly facilitates the visual tracking of the fall of the lure through the water column.

Tip: When fishing with ester lines, always supplement your setup with a fluorocarbon shock leader and carefully adjust the reel drag to prevent the material from breaking during a hard hookset.
