As we know, materials are constantly evolving, and among the most active companies in the sector is certainly the English Gardner Tackle. Here is the brand new, latest generation monofilament just released on the market, which joins the GT80+ line.
We are talking about the GT 80 Plus Clear, which has just arrived in Italy. This new generation product is the evolution of one of Gardner's historic lines, which is a certainty for all enthusiasts in the sector, the GT80+. This new version, named CLEAR, was created to offer ever-improving performance to anglers by combining the latest formulas and state-of-the-art manufacturing processes in monofilament production, allowing all of us a final product truly capable of making a difference compared to others.
It is truly a quality product with superior performance to others.
The main differences/improvements we have ascertained are:
The special copolymer formula that Gardner has used gives the line additional weight through a secret additive that ensures the fastest sinking among all available monofilaments.
GT80+ Clear offers the highest abrasion resistance, without sacrificing other critical attributes such as knot strength, softness, or linear strength. We remind you that all breaking strengths on braids, nylons, or fluorocarbons by Gardner Tackle are always measured at the knot and not under direct load.
Almost zero stretch; this monofilament always gives you a feeling of control and precision superior to any other nylon. We tested the knot strength very rigorously, and the result truly impressed us positively. The GT 80 Plus has epic resistance to any type of knot; describing it sometimes is reductive, you definitely have to try it; even the finish of the line leaves a soft and very uniform diameter sensation.
Its color provides very low visibility in water and offers exceptional camouflage for your main line across a wide variety of environments.
You can find it in the following poundages and sizes: 10lb (4.5kg) 0.30mm 1400m – 12lb (5.4kg) 0.35mm 1030m – 15lb (6.8kg) 0.40mm 790m
Strengths: Knot strength, sinking, casting smoothness, and almost zero stretch.
