Shimano - Braided Line Kairiki G5

Kairiki G5 maintains all of the characteristics of Kairiki braids, with the advantage of sinking performance. Manufactured using 4 carrier Japanese PE braid strands, with an additional high density, heavy core, Kairiki G5 is less affected by wind or current. Perfect for deeper diving lures and jigging, plus carp and feeder fishing.<br>Kairiki G5 is a fantastic sinking braid to choose if you fish with a lot of deep working lures, or want a braid for carp or feeder fishing. The addition of an additional strand of heavy, super dense fibre to the 4 carrier design creates a sinking braid that easily cuts through the water’s surface tension and slowly sinks. When working deep lures you’ll feel in more direct contact, especially in windy conditions when the surface tow can create unwanted bows and slack line. For carp and feeder fishing, especially at long range, the sinking Kairiki G5 is a game changer.<br>The VT Construction Method used to make Kairiki G5 combines 4 normal carrier strands together with an additional super dense ‘sinking’ fibre, under a constant and even multi-angle tension. This enables each strand to compress and sit perfectly next to the adjacent strands, forming a more compact, rounder profile braid. The tighter weave results is reduced diameter, increased sensitivity and a smoother finish, which contributes to the improved performance characteristics of Shimano’s leading sinking braid.
