   Power Pro a type of braided fishing line made out of a material called Spectra fibers.It has an equivalent diameter of nearly 1/5 of monofilament.Thus the diameter of a piece of Power Pro testing at 50 pounds is equivalent to monofilaments' diameter testing at around 12 pounds.

   DuPont made public in 1938 that their company had invented nylon. [1] This new invention was the first synthetic fiber, fabrics that are commonly used in textiles today. [2] In 1939, DuPont began marketing nylon monofilament fishing lines; however, braided Dacron lines remained the most used and popular fishing line for the next two decades, as early monofilament line was very stiff or "wiry ...

   Backing is the rearmost section of the fishing line and typically used only to "pad up" the spool of the fishing reel, in order to prevent unwanted slippage between the mainline and the (usually metallic and well polished) spool surface, increase the effective radius of the spooled line and hence the retrieval speed (i.e. inches per turn), and ...

5. Braided fishing line - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braided_fishing_line

   Due to the minimal stretch of braided line, hard-hitting fish will frequently cause the line to break. [5] Thus it is very important to set the drag on reels on very low values. Braided fishing lines are very flexible and can be easier to cast long distances. Braided line typically floats, and as such, is a common choice for topwater rigs, etc.

6. Fishing tackle - Wikipedia

   A spinning reel. A fishing reel is a device used for the deployment and retrieval of a fishing line using a spool mounted on an axle. Fishing reels are traditionally used in angling. They are most often used in conjunction with a fishing rod, though some specialized reels are mounted on crossbows or to boat gunwales or transoms. The earliest ...

7. Spin fishing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_fishing

   Bottom bouncing is a spin fishing technique where the spinner is cast up river from the shore, and then allowed to bounce on the river bottom until it has moved downstream. The rod tip is held higher in the air than normal and the speed of retrieval is faster. This method is commonly used when float fishing from an inflatable dingy.
