Cortland Master Braid - Yellow

Cortland Master Braid is the most consistently performing super braid, ideal for a wide variety of freshwater and saltwater applications. Implementing Cortland’s Opti-ConTM Technology, gel-spun fibers are woven into a tighter and stronger braid that stacks better on the reel.

Master Braid is treated with FiberTech® protection that bonds to the individual gel-spun fibers, which adds body and improves handling of the line. This super braid excels at strike detection, instantaneous hooksets and longer casts. With exceptional strength and low stretch, Master Braid doesn’t require a break-in period and maintains its body and handling cast after cast for an extended life. ColorLast provides long-lasting color that does not bleed.

Master Braid

As with all of Cortland's products, this braid is just another example of a great quality product. I fish this in saltwater primarily, feels great in the hand, easy to work with and holds up well.

Be it salt or freshwater, I have not found any Cortland product that I would not recommend.

Best braided line on the market hands down. Th 10,,15,20 is all you need even pulling them out of thick vegetation I’ve been in some sketchy grass with only 10lb braid on my reel and never once broke off a bait on cortland, I’ve ripped out entire tree limbs trying to get my bait out of trees, the mine just doesn’t break. And it feels so good in your hands, a lot of braid feels flat- and although the diameter may be small. It feels thick, it’s just strong and a huge confidence booster. I’ll never go back it even suffix 832
