FOX have just launched their new Spomb E Braid, aimed at anglers who want a simpler setup when spombing.
The headline feature? Itβs designed to be fished straight through with no leader required, which could be a big selling point for anyone who wants to avoid leader knots or keep things as simple as possible.
Specs:
Β£16.99
200m spool
High-visibility white
Supple, floating braid
35lb (15.9kg)
0.26mm diameter
The idea is that the braid has enough strength to cope with repeated Spombing without needing a separate shock leader, while the floating properties should also help keep the line off the water during the retrieve.
At Β£16.99 for 200m, itβs competitively priced against a lot of dedicated spod and marker braids already on the market.
Would you trust a straight-through braid with no leader, or are you sticking with a traditional shock leader setup regardless?
Has anyone already given this a go?
