FINS Fishing Downrigger Braid

FINS Downrigger Braid is designed to enhance your downrigger fishing experience by solving common problems associated with traditional stainless-steel wire, such as corrosion, fraying, and electric repellent charge. Made from high-tenacity PE fibers, this braid provides a smoother, quieter, and more efficient trolling experience.

Key Features

• MAXIMUM TENSILE STRENGTH UNDER PRESSURE: Delivers consistent, unwavering strength to control heavy downrigger weights and hard-fighting fish without fraying, flattening, or weakening over repeated deep-water trolling sessions.
• AMERICAN-MADE QUALITY: FINS Downrigger Braid is proudly designed, engineered, and manufactured in Erlanger, Kentucky, USA. Rigorously tested to meet the demanding performance standards of dedicated downrigger trolling anglers.
• DRAMATICALLY REDUCES BLOWBACK AND CABLE HUM: Cuts cleanly through the water column to minimize blowback, keeping weights tracking nearly vertical so lures run truer in the strike zone for consistently more productive presentations.
• BRAIDED LINE, NOT WIRE - REPLACES STAINLESS STEEL CABLE: This synthetic braid contains no metal, so it won't kink, rust, or cause fish-startling vibration like traditional stainless steel cable. Stays smooth and completely reliable through years of hard downrigger use on the water.
• SMOOTH SPOOLING AND LOW MEMORY: Firm, rounded 8-strand profile reduces memory and ensures consistent deployment and retrieval on all downrigger reels, delivering reliable and long-lasting season-after-season performance.
• HOW TO USE: Direct replacement for stainless steel cable on all downrigger systems. Attach downrigger weight to the terminal end. 150 lb+ gray braided fishing line recommended for all freshwater and saltwater setups.
• TARGET SPECIES: Engineered for freshwater and offshore downrigger trolling targeting salmon, lake trout, kokanee, striped bass, halibut, tuna, mahi-mahi, wahoo, and king mackerel in deep water trolling applications.
• NEVER-FADE BLACK COLOR: Downrigger Braid is now available in never-fade black fiber, with the black color introduced at the point of the fiber's creation rather than coated on afterward. Never-fade fiber is exactly what it sounds like — it can never lose its color, staying a rich black for the life of the line with absolutely no color bleed.
