The Gardner Hydro-Sink Braid is a specialist fast-sinking braided main line designed for anglers requiring robust performance and subtle line presentation. It features a construction combining a high-strength Dyneema core with a woven Kevlar fibre overwrap, creating a highly durable fishing braid. An applied Teflon coating enhances friction reduction and increases abrasion resistance, which is beneficial when fishing near underwater obstacles such as weed or rocks. This Gardner braid is engineered to sink exceptionally well, allowing it to lie flush to the lake bed for excellent concealment, which is a key advantage when targeting wary fish like carp. Its low stretch properties, approximately 4%, provide superior bite indication and improved contact with the fish, even at longer ranges. The breaking strain is rated at minimum knot strength, offering reliable performance in practical fishing situations. - Breaking strain rated at minimum knot strength - Supplied in Low-viz dark green - Available in 600m spools - Weight: 22lb - High strength Dyneema core with woven Kevlar fibre overwrap - Teflon coating for reduced friction and increased abrasion resistance - Fast sinking performance for subtle line lay - Low stretch for enhanced bite indication and fish contact - UV resistant
