The W3 Smokey Grey is specifically engineered for seatrout and saltwater anglers. The double dura-coating provides a hydrophobic surface that resists water absorption and reduces friction, while the rigid construction prevents wind knots during repeated casting into strong onshore winds. The colour stability and abrasion resistance ensure long-term durability in harsh marine conditions.
Select the diameter based on your target species and fishing technique. The three smallest sizes (0.08–0.10mm with 3–3.5kg breaking strain) suit finesse presentations and smaller species. Mid-range sizes (0.128–0.165mm with 5–7.9kg) work well for general spinning and mixed species. The heaviest option (0.205mm with 10.1kg) is ideal for large saltwater species and heavy tackle.
The 32 weave-per-inch construction creates a smoother surface and increased abrasion resistance. This results in better knot strength, reduced friction against the rod guide, and improved casting distance and accuracy. The tighter weave also contributes to the line's durability when passing over rocks and obstacles.
While the W3 is specifically engineered for saltwater and seatrout fishing, it's equally suitable for freshwater applications such as pike and perch fishing. The braided construction, smooth surface, and double dura-coating make it an excellent all-round choice for any spinning or casting technique. Choose the diameter based on your target species rather than water type.
The double dura-coating creates a rigid, hydrophobic surface that reduces water absorption and friction. This decreases drag through the rod guides, allowing for longer and more accurate casts. The extra stiffness also prevents wind knots—a critical advantage when casting repeatedly into strong onshore winds.

The W3 Smokey Grey is a premium 8-strand braided line engineered for seatrout and saltwater anglers seeking excellent performance. Our innovative construction combines maximum strength and abrasion resistance with a super-smooth surface, constructed from premium Japanese UHMPE (Ultra High Molecular Polyethylene) fibers.
Featuring 32 weaves per inch with a round profile, the W3 delivers an exceptionally smooth surface and enhanced abrasion resistance. The double dura-coating process creates a rigid, hydrophobic finish that reduces water absorption and friction—key benefits for extended casting sessions in demanding conditions.
Designed specifically for seatrout and saltwater anglers, the W3 resists the extra stiffness needed to avoid wind knots caused by repeated casting into fierce onshore winds. The innovative construction and dura-coating technology ensure superior colour retention and improved longevity in harsh marine environments.
Available in six diameter options from 0.08mm to 0.205mm, the W3 range accommodates everything from finesse presentations to heavy saltwater tackle. The consistent quality across all sizes makes it an ideal all-round choice for dedicated saltwater anglers.
