This 300m bulk spool is the perfect choice for filling multiple reels or deep-spool spinning setups, ensuring you have the capacity and confidence for every session.

Sufix X8 is a premium, Japanese-style braid that prioritizes suppleness and smoothness.

Pro Tip from Gerrys Fishing

The Top-Shot Advantage: With a 300m spool, you dont necessarily have to fill the entire reel with braid. Use roughly 50m of mono backing, then spool on 100-150m of Sufix X8. This high-vis top-shot gives you all the benefits of the chartreuse visibility and braid sensitivity, but allows this one 300m spool to potentially fill two or even three finesse reels!

Examples of Where to Use

• Vertical Jigging: The high-vis color is a lifesaver in deep water, helping you maintain a perfect vertical angle and spot takes on the drop.

• Large Reservoir Trout: The 300m capacity ensures you have plenty of line when a trophy Rainbow Trout decides to take a long, screaming run across open water.

• Colored Water/Low Light: The Neon Chartreuse pops in murky canals or during dawn/dusk sessions, giving you total control over your lures path.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the benefit of the 300m spool size?

Beyond the value, its about capacity. For larger spinning reels (size 3000+) or when fishing deep reservoirs, having 300m of line ensures you never see the knot to your backing during a long cast or a heavy fight.

Does the Neon Chartreuse color fade?

Sufix uses a high-grade dyeing process, but all high-vis braids eventually lose some vibrance due to UV exposure. However, X8 remains highly visible even after significant use, continuing to help you track your line in the water.

What knots are best for Sufix X8?

Because the line is so smooth and round, we recommend knots with plenty of wraps. For braid-to-leader connections, the FG Knot is the gold standard. For direct lure attachment, a Palomar Knot or a Grinner Knot with 8+ turns is exceptionally reliable.

Is it safe for baitcasting reels?

Absolutely. The R8 braiding ensures the line is round enough that it wont dig into itself on the spool under the pressure of a big fish, which is a common issue with flatter 4-strand braids.
