Designed for line shy fish such as trout, carp and seabass, this fluorocarbon offers the perfect camouflage. It combines invisibility, high tensile strength, abrasion resistance and UV-protection all in one fishing line. The applications are very versatile and offer great possibilities for fresh- and saltwater fishing. Specialists use this line for snelled hooks, carp rigs and as branch lines on sea rigs to increase the number of bites and to simply bag more fish.
Gamakatsu® started producing fish hooks in 1955. At that time, they were the smallest hook manufacturer in Japan and all of their hooks were made by hand. In 1963 they introduced a new automated heating facility which catapulted them to the forefront of the Japanese market. In 1974, they introduced fully automated hook making machines and found it necessary to build a second factory in order to meet the demand they had created. - See more at: http://www.gamakatsu.com/about.html#sthash.c32MnteN.dpuf
