Berkley Sick Fluorocarbon Leader 0.30mm 7kg 50m Clear

Berkley Sick Fluorocarbon Leader 0.30mm — Near-invisible protection in hard structure

The Berkley Sick Fluorocarbon Leader 0.30mm combines stealth with exceptional knot strength, making it the ideal leader material when predators lurk near mussels, rocks, and snags.

Almost invisible under water

Fluorocarbon's refractive index closely matches water, rendering this 0.30mm leader nearly undetectable to trout, perch, and zander. In clear conditions or when fish are leader-shy, that invisibility translates directly into more bites.

Built to survive structure

Abrasion resistance and high knot strength protect your connection when fish dive into rocks or razor-edged mussel beds. The supple construction maintains lure action while offering low stretch for direct contact and solid hooksets.
