It is made of twisted nylon yarn. The advantage is that it has a certain degree of ductility, and it is not easy to break when throwing and middle fish. Because the production technology has been developed for nearly 70 years, the cost is low and the output is large. Compared with PE The line is much cheaper. The last point is that the nylon surface is smooth, and the wear on the loop can be minimized. The disadvantage is that it has a shorter life span, ages faster, and is more easily damaged. In the sun, the thread will quickly become unusable, and it should not be used for a long time in the water, because nylon will slightly absorb water, which will reduce the sensitivity of the thread. And it has a certain buoyancy, so it sinks slowly.

We generally novice practice can choose nylon line, because it is cheap, and then because it has buoyancy, we can use it to catch upper fish.


But if you want to catch bottom fish, you should avoid using nylon thread.


Then there are several misunderstandings about nylon thread, which everyone needs to understand.

nylon thread

1. There is no so-called anti-static treatment, anti-winding. Any object has moving electrons, the same-sex repels each other, but the opposite sex attracts each other is a constant principle. The electron movement direction of a sub-wire is the same, and it is not attracted to each other. How to do anti-static treatment in this situation, in fact, the reason why the sub-wire is entangled, the unevenness of the lead sheet is thrown away, and other reasons. The biggest factor is water flow. Everyone knows that any object with water stains on the surface will be attracted together due to the tension of the water.


2. The softer the line, the better? This is a misunderstanding of Taiwan Fishing. In fact, the advantage of the flexible cord is that it has good flexibility. Fish can only be inhaled more easily and better ingested. However, the roll resistance, extension resistance, and stability are greatly reduced. When choosing a fishing line, the first indicator should be a pull. Only after having the pulling force can we have the opportunity to consider other properties. If even the most basic indicators are not reached, it will be soft and anti-rolling. In addition, we need a harder line for the mainline. The transmission of the hard-line is better, and the floating action will be more obvious. To use the simplest analogy, for example, there is a table in front of you. If you pat on one end of the table, you can feel the vibration on the other end, and if you pat on a soft sofa, the vibration will naturally be consumed.


Then how should we distinguish the quality of nylon thread?


1. A good nylon fishing line must be shiny, the transparent line must not have variegated colors, and the colored mainline must not be whitish. If there is a color that does not match the natural color line, it shows that the line is in the production process. If there is a problem in the middle, the whitish part will cause uneven force on the entire fishing line.


2. Measure the line diameter. The diameter of good fishing lines is very standard. Inferior lines usually increase in number. Rely on increasing the diameter to maintain the tension. Everyone uses the big brand fishing line of the same line number for comparison.


3. A good fishing line is soft to the touch, uniform in thickness, smooth in surface, and recovers quickly after being stressed. If the line recovers slowly or cannot recover at all after being stressed, it is a poor quality line.


4. The last step is to test the nodule tension. Generally, the nodule tension of the fishing line will be about 20%-30% lower than the straight-line tension. If it is reduced by more than 30%, it is considered a low-quality product.
