What’s New for 2017

There are three new spool fillers out for 2017 from Berkley and they look the business, and are retailing at amazingly low prices. Each line has its own properties for demanding situations. I haven’t used these yet, but I have looked at them and they feel good, particularly the abrasion resistance and strength, and the sink properties of the CM90. I can see this range of lines having some extremely useful applications. Great looking lines at a sensible price. Available through all good tackle shops.

What the manufacturers say.

Fishing with superlines is becoming more and more popular within the Carp scene. The benefits of braided lines are obvious. Supreme strength can be expected and the no-stretch property is un-beatable while fishing at far distance.

Berkley Pro-Anglers have chosen the line that can deliver all that and much more. Direct Connection is ready for action whenever you are!

Connect CM90

For CM90, our weedy green line, we used pro-grade alloy monofilament polymers. This way we have managed to build an even denser line that sinks better and settles quickly. Fantastic casting, abrasion, strength and manageability properties were combined in this great Carp mono.
