PLATYPUS LO-STRETCH

Platypus lo-stretch is a monofilament that has such low stretch it thinks it's a braid.

• The advantage of braid is the incredible sensitivity you get from near zero stretch
• Platypus Lo-Stretch has the lowest stretch possible from a monofilament
• By captialising on new raw material blends and state of the art manufacturing processes we are able to bring you this exceptional line
• Much has been written about the advantages of Braid and most of it is true| but we often forget that monofilament has its place in fishing as well

Some points to consider:

• Some stretch is good| braid has almost no stretch which makes the line incredibly sensitive| but can result in pulled hooks and lost fish
• Platypus Lo-Stretch gives you the best of both worlds - enough stretch to allow a slight shock absorbing quality with minimum stretch for maximum sensitivity.

"This line makes it possible to control the fish when I need to| very reliable line!" - Mr Ishikawa Motchan| respected Japanese seabass angler

• All braided lines have worse knot strength than monofilament| and knots for braids typically require more turns and wraps than regular knots
• Good knots tied with Platypus Lo-Stretch give 100% knot strength| excellent knots tied in braid give 85% knot strength
• Platypus Lo-Stretch is more cost effective than Braid| roughly one third the price of Braid
