Quick guide in choosing Hitena braided lines
- Razor : 4 strands world thinnest braided line. Super sensitivity for finesse fishing - trout, crappie, perch, small rockfishes, ..., etc
- Silky : 16 strands for 14 lb or above. Simply best of the best - Great for any fishing with absolutely round and smooth texture
- Pureline : 12 strands for 14 lb or above. Ultra abrasion resistance - Works great for bottom fishing, rock fishing, surf casting, fresh water that need to get around vegetation and debris, and species with abrasive skins. Has medium texture in the middle of Silky and Raptor
- Raptor : 8 strands. Best value for money - Works great especially for saltwater but tight braid and harsh texture generates some guide noises.
Hitena's main lines are every inch BREAK STRENGTH TESTED UNDER ISO STANDARD AND RATED AS IT IS since we don't want any anglers to oversize lines unnecessarily. If we have rated it 20 lb for example, it breaks just there. It's not like 20 lb rated actually breaking at 35 lb. If you are used to other brand's down-rating and want to have peace of mind, you might go for 1 (above 25 lb) or 2 (below 25 lb) strength step higher with ours but our lines are still much thinner than others. Since quality and consistency is controlled far tighter during production, Hitena's braided lines have less chance to break in actual fishing than others for the same strength.
Since Hitena's braided lines are self-recovery coated to protect from external damage, you may feel the line bleed dye in the first place but it's normal. Once this stage is over, they fast color much better than any other braided lines in the market.
