DuraCast Wins!: Best New Braided Line, EFFTEX 2009
TUF-Line DuraCast is the braid solution for spinning reels. Its revolutionary patent-pending construction process eliminates tip wraps, wind knots, rod guide noise and common bail trip issues associated with standard superlines, yet delivers the strength and sensitivity advantages anglers have come to rely on. So outstanding is DuraCast's performance that the line won the Best New Braided Line award at the prestigious European Fishing Tackle Trade Association show in June of 2009. DuraCast's award is only the second time in history a U.S. manufacturer has been the recipient of the honor.
TUF-Line® DuraCast's Tri-Axial, bi-component construction ensures long wearing durability, permanent coloration, and unparalleled abrasion resistance. While DuraCast offers a quantum leap forward with regard to braid performance on spinning reels, it also performs flawlessly on casting reels, offering a complete braided line solution for bass, walleye, panfish, trout, steelhead and inshore saltwater anglers.

Pro Staff Notes:
Andy Knausenberger
For more than 10 years I’ve been hunting Europe’s biggest freshwater predator now – the catfish. Fishing the more than 100 kg heavy and up to 3 meters long predator requires highest standards on your equipment. The line is one of the most important components on your hunt for such a giant. Concerning the line I have never accepted compromises. The TUF-Line XP has always sustained its position on getting for the catfish and is part and parcel of my tackle.
During the previous years I’ve been fishing in tropical saltwater. Besides the Caribbean and Florida, Africa’s west- and east coast is one of my favorites. Let it be spin fishing on Tarpon or jig- and popper fishing the TUF-Line provided the catches of my life. That’s for sure: no other line will be part of my tackle!
Lines fished: 50 lbs, 65 lbs, 100 lbs, 130 lbs
