The Gosen W8 Jigging braid has been created to match the needs of jigging, adding 20% – 30% more strength than regular braids.

Gosen has over 50 years experience as one of the leading manufacturers of fishing line in Japan, but until now this expertise has remained fairly hidden to the outside world. Gosen is now a leading braids & lines exporter for the overseas market and its products have been well accepted by anglers, retailers and wholesalers all over the world.

Gosen 8 (Omega) Jigging is probably one of the most extensively studied and well designed, original, Japanese braid. This is the ultimate choice when performance requirements are high and no compromise is forgiven.

Many braids perform as expected at the beginning, however they gradually fall back in most of their criteria, after each use. Their manufacturing characteristics tend to wear out after each contact with sea water, with the one of strength being the one to suffer the most. You will no feel this deterioration at any of the Gosen products and especially in the 8 Jigging braid.

Made of GradePolyethylene with20% – 30% higher desnity per inch, 120% more strength than standard PE lines, the Gosen Jigging braid remails 100% round and compact, while at the same time does not absorb any water. This characteristics is very important for the braid’s performance, especially to the fishermen who use lures, or jigs, as it does not slow down or interfeer with their descent. Instead they allow the lures, or jigs to move freely and naturally. In addition, the unatural sound of water running through the rod’s guides, is not emitted in the water, scaring prey away.

Gosen W8 Jigging is a high-quality PE line, and thanks to the 4S process, it achieves the optimum balance of softness, stiffness, sensitivity and strength to suit various fishing styles. The 4S process relies on a special technology that enables Gosen to achieve the optimum balance between various fishing styles and proper line tension.

Gosen W8 Jigging comes in a 5 colour patterning with change of colour every 10 meters for accurate distance monitoring. Gosenbraid is the perfect braid for all fishing applications from rock and surf, drop shotting, shore game spinning, vertical jigging to tiger and bass fishing.
