Korum Smokescreen Micro Braid - 10lb

Yes, its supple nature makes it an excellent choice for short hooklengths used in PVA bag presentations.

It performs well with most standard specimen hooks, but ensure the hook eye is smooth to prevent line damage during the knot-tying process.

Unlike monofilament, this braid is extremely supple and sinks faster, allowing for more natural bait movement and a better presentation on the lake bed.

While technically possible, it is designed as a sinking braid and may not perform as well as floating monofilament or copolymer lines for surface work.

Use a dedicated pair of sharp braid scissors to get a clean cut without fraying the ends of the material.

Ensure you are using a knot suitable for braided lines, such as the Palomar knot, and always moisten the line before tightening.

Incorporate a small piece of rig putty or an anti-tangle sleeve to increase the weight at the hook end and keep the braid straight.

This is likely caused by contact with sharp rocks or zebra mussels; check your spot for debris and consider using a slightly heavier breaking strain if fishing in snaggy water.
