Shimano Kairiki 8 Braided Fishing Line Reintroducing the Kairiki 8 from Shimano, now adopting new “VT construction method” braiding technology. This is a very strong and smooth PE line which is perfect for casting great distances. Featuring 8 carriers and incorporating premium Japanese manufacturing, the new tight weave VT construction is created through applying high tension at opposing directions during the braiding process. In the VT Construction Method, fibre is weaved evenly at all angles, resulting in a smoother finish, reduced diameter and a long cast. Additionally the smooth finish creates less friction through the guides, minimising cast noise and aids to a stealthier approach. The tight weave achieves enhanced sensitivity, resulting in low stretch. These attributes make Kairiki 8 an excellent choice for finesse fishing, casting lures and tying knots where smoothness, sensitivity and castability are all required to give that extra edge against your next encounter. With a maximum stretch of less than 3.0 per cent, it is very sensitive as well. And with its smoothness and low diameter, the Kairiki 8 is a great line for jigging since it has low water resistance. This highly sensitive, very smooth and quiet line has the perfect properties for spin fishing in both fresh and saltwater. It is available in diameters from 0.06mm up to 0.42mm with a staggering breaking strength of up to 46.7 kilograms. There are now two extra colors available next to the Mantis Green and Steel Grey, namely a highly visible Yellow version and a Multi Colour line. The Multi Colour is especially suitable for fishing at greater depths.
