Description
PRE-TEST
FOR OVER 30 YEARS PLATYPUS PRE-TEST HAS BEEN THE LINE TO USE IF YOU WERE CHASING SPORT AND GAMEFISHING RECORDS.
Proving itself with over 500 IGFA and ANSA records, Platypus Pre-test is an example of good old Aussie know how.
Platypus Pre-test offers confidence that no other line in the world has the guts to do, with the highest test written in black and white on the spool. Every 1000 metres of Pretest is tested three times with the highest test written on the spool.
Just because Platypus Pre-test has been around for over 30 years does not mean that it has remained the same. Platypus is constantly updating techniques, tracking down new nylon resins and additives to bring you the best possible nylon monofilament in the world.
Platypus Pre-test has an engineered stretch, which acts as a shock absorber for those long battles with trophy fish. Platypus uses its exclusive hard annealing process to provide excellent abrasion resistance and reliable quality.
