Samson 36 Strong braid
Samson Fishing are proud to announce our first high performance braid, Samson 36 Strong.
This premium 8 strand braid is constructed with 36 weaves compared to the typical 22 to 28 weaves used by other manufacturers. This gives 36 Strong a significant increase in breaking strain, abrasion resistance and high knot strength, allowing you to fish safe in the knowledge that your line will stand up to big fish and rough conditions. With virtually zero stretch you will gain excellent control and receive maximum feedback from your lure or bait.
The incorporated Carbon Nano PE technology improves colour retention and prevents water absorption, which stops the line from becoming heavy and reducing casting distance. Together with the round profile this enables you to keep casting further for longer to reach the fish.
During independent testing, 36 Strong broke at much higher breaking strains than it is rated for. Available in breaking strains from 15 to 80lbs, when paired with a Samson rod and lures you will have a complete set-up for tackling the largest of fish from the shore.
