Ultima Virage - High performance Pure Fluorocabon 40m Spools

Prices from £7.25
Virage is a hi-tech, top quality pure fluorocarbon monofilament with a breaking strain and knot strength of the highest calibre.

HIGH STRENGTH
Virage offers high levels of linear breaking strains and knot strength comparable with the best hi-tech lines. However, Virage line has other unique advantages that makes the strength to diameter ratio less significant.

SUPERFAST SINKING
In most styles of fishing, it is preferable for the line to sink and to sink quickly. When compared with the specific gravity of water, which is 1.00, Virage has a specific gravity of 1.77 while nylon is between 1.4-1.5.

This means that Virage will sink around three times more quickly than normal nylon. Field tests have shown that Virage only takes 15 seconds to sink 60cm, while nylon takes 45 seconds to reach the same level. This of course means that you get to where the fish are more quickly, vital in competitive situations.

INVISIBILITY
Another advantage of Virage is its virtual invisibility in water due to its refraction which is much closer to that of water than that of nylon.
The light refraction ratio of Virage is 1.39 and that of water is 1.33. In comparison, the light refraction ratio of nylon can be anything between 1.53 and 1.65.

LOW WATER ABSORPTION

Virage absorbs no water, regardless of the length of time it is submerged, while nylon will absorb water to as high a level as 10% of its weight, even when submerged for as little as 1 to 2 hours. This water absorption affects the linear strength of nylon, as the chart below demonstrates.

HIGH DURABILITY
Virage is a very stable product and is not affected to the same degree as nylon in extreme temperature conditions. Virage is also virtually unaffected by ultraviolet radiation and therefore will not deteriorate when exposed to direct sunlight.

The improved catch rates that result from Virage’s special characteristics in the areas of game, sea and match fishing have persuaded many people that the higher price of Virage is well worth the investment.

A remarkable product for the specialist angler.

"What makes Virage so special is the low diameter and it’s excellent knot strength. This, added to the invisibility factor, makes the line very difficult for the Carp to detect. This could be just the edge that you are looking for."
Advanced Carp Fishing Magazine

"Something that makes Virage stand out from other fluorocarbon lines is the low diameter and excellent knot strength."
Total Carp Magazine

"Suitable for all styles of fishing. A great leader material."
Bob Edmunds

"One of the strongest and most robust leader materials I’ve tried today. Great knot-strength and hard-wearing into the bargain. Sinks very fast. Ideal for lure fishing." Leigh Pond "Excellent knot strength."
Phil Barker

Hello

We have just received the latest Ultima line. You may have seen this advertised in many angling publications.
The line is called Ultima Power Steel.

Ultima Power Steel Ultimate Strength Mono Fishing Line

100m = £4.99 Special Introductory price
300m = £8.99 Special Introductory price
Ultimate Strength Mono
• Highest linear strength
• Highest knot strength
• Highest abrasion resistance
• Best bite detection
• 100% wet knot strength
• Better than braid

THE STRONGEST LINE THERE IS
Power Steel is the most remarkable product we have ever produced. Stronger than any other line on the market by as much as 30 per cent and with a knot strength to match. Power Steel is smooth, silky and user friendly with an abrasion resistance that is unequalled.

Use Power Steel in any situation on the reel or pole and you will be so impressed.

We have tested all the other lines with any presence on the market under laboratory conditions and none of them come close to the strength and knot strength of Power Steel.

Change to Power Steel with total confidence that you'll significantly improve the performance you get from your line in every respect.

ULTIMATE POWER
Strength is the most important characteristic for any line and Ultima have worked tirelessly over the last three years to advance performance in this area to new levels. Power Steel is the result. With an increase of on average 30 per cent in both linear and knot strength compared with anything that has been available previously, Power Steel is the strongest line there is.

UNRIVALLED BITE DETECTION
Ultima's technology means that strength and usability go hand in hand. Power Steel has been developed with an ultra low stretch which means that you will never miss a bite and always have maximum control.

BETTER THAN BRAID
The instant contact and control puts more fish on the bank. It gives the feel of braid but with all the advantages of mono when feeder fishing or fishing at distance.

KNOT STRENGTH
Like all Ultima products, Power Steel is designed to deliver the maximum possible knot strength. Our technical expertise and experience have been combined to deliver a relative knot strength that exceeds anything else on the market by a huge margin.

ABRASION RESISTANCE
The latest materials give an abrasion resistance that is hard to believe. We have never had a line that has produced such phenomenal results in our lab and the practical and field test results have been just as impressive.

SOFTNESS AND PRESENTATION
Power Steel is accurately rated for diameter as with all Ultima lines, so you can cast further than with most other lines. Power Steel is smooth, soft, supple and presents the bait perfectly. It's as user friendly as any line you'll have ever seen.

We still have the Rod Hutchinson Flavours in stock
