Revolutionary Platypus Lo-Stretch,
the monofilament that thinks it's a Braid!
Introducing Platypus Lo-Stretch a monofilament that has such low
stretch it thinks it's a braid.
The advantage of braid is the incredible
sensitivity you get from near zero stretch; Platypus Lo-Stretch
has the lowest stretch possible from a monofilament.
By captialising
on new raw material blends and state of the art manufacturing
processes we are able to bring you this exceptional line.
Much has been written about the advantages of Braid; and most
of it is true, but we often forget that monofilament has its place
in fishing as well. Some points to consider:
Some stretch is good, braid has almost no stretch which makes
the line incredibly sensitive, but can result in pulled hooks and
lost fish.
Platypus lo-Stretch, gives you the best of both worlds
enough stretch to allow a slight shock absorbing quality with
minimum stretch for maximum sensitivity.
Braid has worse knot strength than monofilament, knots for braids
typically require more turns and wraps than regular knots.
Good
knots tied in Platypus Lo-Stretch give 100% knot strength, excellent
knots tied in braid give 85% knot strength.
Platypus Lo-Stretch is more cost effective than Braid, roughly
one third the price of Braid.
Platypus Lo-Stretch is available in IGFA rated 3 kg – 24 kg in
300 or 500 metres in your choice of Pink or Blue.
