Berkley X5 Braid Braided Line 300m 0.17mm 9.1kg Low-Vis Green

Berkley X5 Braid — 300m Low-Vis Green — Reliable Strength Through Weeds and Cover

The Berkley X5 Braid (PE, polyethylene) in Low-Vis Green delivers a 5-carrier construction built to handle predator fishing in demanding environments — 300m of consistent, abrasion-resistant braid at 0.17mm / 9.1kg breaking strain.

Five-Strand Construction for Tough Spots

Where a standard 4-strand braid might struggle, the X5 adds a fifth PE carrier to increase compactness and roundness. The result is a tighter, more uniform braid that cuts through aquatic vegetation cleanly, maintains a consistent diameter along the full 300m, and transmits bites with high sensitivity during the retrieve.

Confident Casting and Bite Detection for Predator Fishing

The dense weave reduces line noise through the guides and promotes smooth, controlled casts — especially when working lures at distance. Low stretch inherent in PE construction means vibrations from jig contact, bottom composition, and takes are transmitted directly to the rod tip, giving you more time to react when targeting perch, pike, or zander in both fresh and salt water.

Choose the Right Variant

The X5 Braid is available across a wide range of diameters, breaking strains, spool lengths, and two colours. Match the variant to your target species, rod rating, and fishing environment:

• Low-Vis Green, 0.12mm / 4.5kg — 150m or 300m: Light finesse work; drop-shotting, small-lure perch fishing

• Low-Vis Green, 0.14mm / 6.8kg — 150m, 300m, or 2000m: Balanced all-rounder for light predator setups; perch and smaller zander

• Low-Vis Green, 0.17mm / 9.1kg — 150m or 300m: Mid-range predator fishing; pike and zander in weedy or mixed cover — this spool

• Low-Vis Green, 0.20mm / 13.6kg — 150m, 250m, or 300m: Heavier cover; larger pike, casting heavier lures

• Low-Vis Green, 0.25mm / 18.1kg — 150m or 300m: Big-water pike, trolling, or high-resistance situations

• Low-Vis Green, 0.30mm / 22.7kg — 150m or 300m: Heavy-duty predator or saltwater use

• Low-Vis Green, 0.35mm / 36.3kg — 150m: Large predators, strong tidal runs

• Low-Vis Green, 0.40mm / 36.2kg — 150m or 250m: Extreme cover, large saltwater species

• Low-Vis Green, 2000m bulk spools — 0.10mm to 0.17mm: Economical option for frequent respooling

• Flame Green variants — 0.08mm to 0.40mm, 150m–300m: High-visibility option for tracking line movement on the surface
