GSP Braided PE Backing (FOR REELS ONLY)
This is not for resale. This is only for adding to a reel or spool purchased in conjunction with backing. If you need to purchase backing, please look HERE
Premium 8 carrier backing is made of the finest materials from Japan. 8 strands of tightly woven fibers makes for a round backing that stacks perfectly on the fly reel. The result is a stronger, softer and smoother performance backing. The breaking strain and diameter make this a perfect choice for all fishing, from pan fish to ultra-big game such as GT's, billfish and tarpon.
