Korda Basix Main Line - Green

Choose 12lb for general fishing in open water, or opt for the 15lb version if you are fishing in snaggy environments or targeting larger carp where extra strength is required.

A 500m spool is usually sufficient for filling two standard-sized carp reels, while the 1,000m spool is more economical if you are filling three reels or deep spools.

Yes, the line is robust enough for use with PVA bags, provided you don't overload them, which would place unnecessary stress on the main line during the cast.

Like all monofilaments, it will degrade if exposed to intense UV light or prolonged friction. It is recommended to replace the line at least once a season depending on usage.

While intended primarily for ledgering, the Basix line can be used for surface or float fishing, though you may prefer a floating line for specific surface techniques.

Ensure the line comes off the bulk spool in the same direction it is going onto your reel spool; use a pencil or a dedicated line winder to maintain even tension.

Moisten the line with saliva before tightening any knot to prevent friction heat, which can damage monofilament and weaken the knot.
