Cortland Master Braid - Bronze

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.

Good Color

I like the bronze color. It's easy to see but not as bright as yellow. I've used 5 lb. to 60 lb. and have had no problems.

5 and 8 pound braid

5 lb. Braid is great for casting and durability. Haven’t had any issues and I’ve been using it for a few years now.

New line each year. Switch to the 8 lb. Braid as needed.

Like the the yellow and blue braid, they hold their color fairly well.
