Shilton FLY-X Braid 50lbs Backing 300m
Product information "Shilton FLY-X Braid 50lbs Backing 300m"
The new Shilton Fly-X Backing is your insurance when targeting fast-swimming, hard-fighting fish: GT, tarpon, tuna, big salmon, and more. Especially in saltwater fishing, this material shows its strengths, as the 9-strand round braided backing is highly abrasion-resistant—making it the perfect choice when coral, reefs, or sharp rocks are involved. The individual fibers are made from ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene, ensuring a long service life and preventing issues with mold. PE is the material of choice when maximum breaking strength is needed with minimal diameter.
The backing’s high visibility gives you a clear view during the fight, while the smooth surface protects your rod guides, reduces drag in both water and air, and lays more evenly on the reel.
The 50 lbs backing is ideal if you're looking for the perfect balance between high strength and generous capacity on your reel. With a breaking strength of 50 lbs, it’s perfectly suited for bonefish, permit, and all applications with medium two-handed rods.
