Hello Fishing Buddies!
Today, we'll be talking about the Asso Protector Tapered Shockleader.
(Intro)
Here I have the
Asso Protector Tapered Shockleader in yellow color.
It does seem to have a fair amount of line memory.
The thinnest part is advertised to be 0.38mm in diameter.
According to my caliper, it is 0.36mm.
The thinnest part is described to be
0.5 metres in length which then continues to a 7 metres long tapered section and ultimately
ends in 8 metres of 0.75mm line.
As per my caliper,
it is 0.65mm in diamter.
Moving on to the UV torch visibility test.
And this shockleader glows a bright neon yellow under a UV torch.
Using both the thinnest and the thickest section of this tapered shockleader, I prep them for
the break test by tying them on to Tronixpro's
SS2 Rolling Swivel that is rated for 132lbs.
Let's proceed to testing the break test.
This is the thinnest section that is rated for 18lbs.
it broke at 19.44 lbs.
This section is rated for 70lbs.
There we have it.
All that's left now is to cast with it.
