Rive Hooklength Line
Confidence on the bank is one of the biggest keys to angling success. Without top quality gear in your setup, you’re never going to be confident enough to succeed – especially if you’re nervous that your rig setup isn’t up to the task. This is why Rive has designed its very own Hooklength Line, allowing you to be confident that you’re able to tackle anything that the water throws at you. After all, your hooklength is integral to your match fishing setup, whether you fish with a pole or a rod and reel, and the brand has focussed its 30 years of tackle manufacturing experience on making this the best line possible.
Anglers use hooklength in their setup for two reasons. Firstly, should you encounter any snags in the water, your hooklength will break before your mainline. This ensures that the most you ever lose in the water is your rig and your fish, so you don’t have to worry about causing damage to your fish or your gear when you’re fishing in snaggy conditions. However, this isn’t the only area where a hooklength is vital. Since your hooklength boasts a lower breaking strain than your mainline it also boasts a lower diameter too. This means that your fish is much less likely to notice and be spooked by your hooklength than it is your mainline – particularly when you’re fishing in clear waters. As you can see, no matter your angling style or your venue features, a top end hooklength, such as this offering from Rive, is vital to your angling success.
The first thing you’ll notice about this Rive Hooklength Line is that it is transparent in colour. This ensures that it is practically invisible in a whole range of different water types – minimising the risk that your line is going to spook the fish. What’s more, this is an exceptionally soft hooklength option. This ensures that you’re able to enjoy flawless presentation of your hook bait time after time, which once again maximises your chances of a take. The Rive Hooklength Line has an especially designing elasticity, which is ideal if you’re targeting fish who typically take your line aggressively. This gives you the extra security for these hard fighting fish, allowing you to enjoy the confidence to tackle all manner of species. The line also boasts a high knot strength, once again boosting your confidence in your rig.
If you’re looking to target fish near the margins then this is the ideal hooklength line for you. It is specially designed to work like a treat right next to the bank and it is ideal for playing fish right under the tip. It is available in 11 different strains. The lowest of these is a 0.8lb line, which boasts an ultra-thin diameter of 0.06mm. Conversely, the strongest line in the range is 8lb, which is ideal for targeting the larger and harder fighting coarse species that the UK has to offer. With this extensive range, you’re able to choose the perfect line type for your needs.
Rive understands that the smallest components of your set up can lead to the biggest differences on the bank, which is why it has worked so hard to ensure that this Hooklength Line performs flawlessly in a whole range of match fishing scenarios.
