Shimano Technium Mono Line UK 2016

Shimano has been leading the way in carp reel production ever since the company first turned its hand to reel design over 50 years ago. Originally a bike gear manufacturer, and still prolific in this area, Shimano can be considered the expert in all things rotational. It has since evolved its fishing expertise into rods, luggage, line and more!

Developed for UK anglers and the unique challenges faced in the British rivers, lakes, and venues, this Shimano line is supplied on quarter-pound spools and offers fantastic all-round potential.

The Technium Mono Line Technium Line from Shimano is famous for its triple-core, giving it unmatchable strength and resilience. Thanks to Shimano’s commitment to continued innovation this triple core technology has been greatly improved and the Technium Mono UK 2016 is thinner and stronger than any line that has come before it. This triple-core technology in Technium mono has always made this one of the best lines on the market as Japanese technologies have made it not only thinner but stronger to help fight those stubborn carp!

The triple-core construction also reduces the stretch of the line as the centre layer is solid, most mono's stretch over twenty-five percent.  Technium around half the stretch of this average which not only vastly increases casting distance, but it makes bite detection much sharper without the fear of fish loss. This is ideal for anglers who regularly find themselves losing fish due to delicate biting fish.

The solidity of this line also helps it sink down through the water, allowing for great slack line fishing potential. The second layer of the line ensures that the Shimano Technium Mono UK is supple and able to curve to the contours of the water bed. Virtually memory free, this layer of line prevents coiling or twists on the casts and again makes this line a distance casters friend. 

The final layer of line is exceptionally thin and serves as the UV protection for the line. All anglers know how damaging UV can be to a line. Not only does it bleach the colour from the line but it also weakens the structure of the line too. This UV protecting layer stops this from happening, as well as giving the line a smooth finish to ensure it can peel off the spool with ease. Shimano are famous for creating long lasting lines, especially amongst the reel industry, and this line is already revolutionising life on the bank for UK anglers.
