The main line used in sea fishing basically uses PE line as the main line. It can be said that the current PE line is the mainstream line for sea fishing. Since sea fishing is divided into shore fishing and boat fishing, boat fishing is further divided into offshore fishing and deep sea fishing.


In fact, the main line used by each fishing method is different. When fishing for sea fish in different places, the PE line used is completely different. Don't underestimate the choice of PE line, if the choice is incorrect, it will affect the fish mouth, make it difficult to catch the mouth, and sometimes cause the fish to run away. Only by truly mastering how to choose the size, color and style of the PE line can it be beneficial to your own grasp. After all, the fish mouth when fishing is transmitted through the PE line, and the fishing line affects the fish mouth. I believe most fishermen have experienced it.


When fishing, how should we choose a suitable PE line? If you want to choose a PE line, you need to start with understanding the PE line, and choose according to the function of the PE line and your own reality.


PE line, the full name of protective earthing conductor, is a conductor specially used to ground the exposed conductive parts of electrical devices. This kind of thread is generally yellow, and it is a thread body made of dipping after weaving multiple pe fibers. Due to its excellent performance and strong pulling force, it has been improved by the fishing industry and evolved into a fishing line.


The main raw material for the production of PE line is polyethylene, which is a thermoplastic resin obtained by polymerizing ethylene. The biggest feature of polyethylene is that it is odorless, non-toxic, and feels like wax. It has very good ultra-low temperature resistance, and the minimum operating temperature can reach -70 ~ -100 ℃. The stability of chemical properties is also very good, can withstand the erosion of most acids and alkalis, and has super wear resistance. At room temperature, polyethylene (also called PE wire) has very little water absorption, is more insoluble in common solvents, and has excellent electrical insulation properties.


It is precisely because it has acid and salt resistance, wear resistance, ultra-low temperature resistance, and is not easy to absorb water, and has good insulation performance that it has been improved as a fishing line by the fishing industry. Our commonly used PE line is made by professional machines. It is a kind of fishing line woven from multiple strands of PE fiber. In the specific production, it is necessary to weave a plurality of pe line fibers first, and then immerse them in glue to form a relatively thick line. Their most obvious advantage is that the strength is relatively large and the tensile force value is relatively large.


There are many advantages of PE wire, such as the number of woven strands itself, so the strength is higher, and it is smoother after applying the PE coating. When weaving, the number of strands can be determined according to the actual situation. Fishermen define the number of strands by the number of weaves, such as 4 weaving, 8 weaving, and 12 weaving. As the production process becomes more and more advanced, there are already 16 knitted PE lines on the market.


The types and models of PEI are mainly divided by the number of lines, which are defined by 4, 8, and 9, and the number of lines is divided into several lines, such as 4 lines, 2 lines, 3 lines, Line 4, etc.


In fact, no matter how the PE line is or the style, as fishing, it is all distinguished by the diameter of the PE line, that is, it is enough to know the size of the line. You can decide which line to buy according to the fishing place. However, you need to pay attention to its color, coating appearance and production process when purchasing. At present, there are many colors of PE lines on the market, mainly white, yellow, red, green, fluorescent orange, and various mixed colors.


Many people will say that the color of the thread is not important, it is not very important. Indeed, the color of the PE line has no effect on the quality of the line itself. However, since it will diversify the color of the PE line, it still has a certain role. For example, 10 meters of PE line of one color can judge the depth of the sea water according to how many colors are put when we are fishing and laying the line. As many anglers said, the color of the PE line will affect the fish mouth. For example, what color fishing line produces what kind of light in the water, what visual effect does it produce on the fish, etc. In my experience, the effect of light body color on the mouth of the fish is not very large and can be ignored. What affects the mouth of the fish is more of the state of the bait.
