Cabbage Key is proud to offer Jerry Brown Line
One Spectra. Available in both industry standard solid and
Hollow braided configuration. JB spectra is superior to all other
brands. Line one is manufactured with finer filaments
resulting in a smoother, more pliable line much the same as in
aircraft cable, the more strands, the more flexible the wire, in
this case line.
Line One
is uncoated, no messy dust or clumps of waxy residue to contend
with, not to mention you will spool more line on due to
its smaller, consistent diameter.
Line One hollow spectra
has one more very important advantage, the ability to construct a
knotless splice. Testing at 100%, a simple latch hook or doubled
over piece of wire leader can be used to splice
2 sections of hollow braid resulting in a virtually
undetectable joint. You can also join 2 lines of varying
test to produce a custom rig depending on your personal needs.
We have used 130 hollow as a base on the reel, then added a
section of 200 lb test hollow for more abrasion resistance for
fishing structure, great for Gulf of Mexico Oil
Rigs.
Inevitably a chafe will occur on your line, simply cut it away
and resplice the line. Jerry himself tells me his personal reels
have about a half dozen or more splices in them. The splice will
test at 100%. No need to toss away or replace expensive line
A popular rig that allows some stretch is a hollow spectra/ mono
combo. The mono is inserted about 5-6 feet into the hollow spectra,
drawn tight, then chemically bonded using a special 2 part
adhesive at the junction of the splice. A length of 30 Lb
Spectra should be tied into a series of half hitches spanning both
lines at the joint. Line One special 2 part adhesive
should be applied to the junction, over the half hitches ,
chemically bonding the ensemble together. This results in a chinese
handcuff type of splice that tests at 100%
This system has proven itself to be the ultimate
connection for mono leader/spectra rigging. It offers the
ability to wind on a long leader of your choice, with no bulky knots
to foul on the rollers or eyelets on the rod. Many anglers have
also attached another piece of hollow spectra with a loop on
the end. This rig allows you to employ a wind on with
a loop to loop connection
It is important to note that hollow lines of
80lb test and lighter are quite a challenge to splice. Generally ,
using white uncoated line is easier to work with. We have also found
the 60 lb and below requires a great deal of time to accomplish a
satisfactory splice, please keep this in mind.
Line One Hollow core,
available in a wide range of weights, lays
flat, resists burying, and spools a greater quantity
than round line.
Considering the obvious advantages
and superior quality, Jerry Brown Line One surprisingly costs
less than the more widely known lines.
What line test braid is appropriate
for my reel?
This is best answered by the drag setting you
will be using your reel. 3 times the maximum drag is a good
rule of thumb. For instance if you set an Avet EX50 at its
maximum setting of 50 pounds drag at strike, the proper line would
be 130 to 150 lb test braid. Anything less will be like putting
bicycle tires on the back of a souped up Vette. Just too small. You
should know the drag settings you will most likely use and go from
there. You can always inexpensively change the topshot or wind on
leader to suit the local conditions and bite.
Another consideration should
be the type of boat you will most likely be on. If you fish on a
private boat, charter boat, or have the capability of chasing
a fish down, that may dictate a different spooling for your
reels. Cattle type boats require you to get your fish to the boat
with a minimum of playing to avoid tangles with other anglers
who may also have fish on at the same time. Big drag pressure and
stout line test are required in this
instance.

IDEAL Scissors

We spool about 20,000 yards of braid per month. Needless to
say we have tried a few pair of scissors in the past. These are by
far the best we have used. Fingerholes wide enough for a mans
fingers, extremely sharp, they cut cleanly the first try. You will
like these. Our price includes delivery
