Seaguar Competition Raft Fishing Line II – 100% Fluorocarbon Leader 100m | Size #1.0 to #3.0 | Made in Japan

The Seaguar Competition Raft Fishing Line II is a 100% fluorocarbon line from Seaguar — the Japanese company that invented fluorocarbon fishing line — developed for competition raft fishing and suited to lure leader and rock fishing sub-line applications. 100m spool across seven sizes from #1.0 to #3.0. All $58.95.

Three Seaguar Fluorocarbon Lines — Which to Choose

• Grand Max FX (60m) — Seaguar’s premium dual-structure leader; maximum knot strength and abrasion resistance for demanding inshore and offshore leader applications; the reference leader for heavy use
• R18 Fluoro Limited (100m) — ISO rock fishing and lure fishing specialist; longer spool for rock fishing main line and extended leader use; sink-tip semi-float buoyancy
• Competition Raft Fishing Line II (100m) — competition and raft fishing specialist; ultra-smooth surface for fast line movement through the guides, exceptional abrasion resistance; suited to raft fishing, lure leader and rock sub-line in sizes #1.0–#3.0

What Is Raft Fishing

Raft fishing (also called ukidana fishing or floating platform fishing) is a style of Japanese freshwater competition fishing conducted from a fixed anchored raft or pontoon platform over deep freshwater. The technique uses a long rod and a drop-rig or float rig presented vertically or near-vertically below the platform, targeting species like crucian carp, black carp and grass carp in competition formats. In Australia, raft fishing as a competition discipline is practised primarily within Japanese-Australian fishing communities. The line developed for this technique — ultra-smooth, abrasion-resistant, low-visibility fluorocarbon on a 100m spool — is equally well-suited to boat fishing from anchored vessels, lure leader applications and rock fishing sub-line where the same properties (smoothness, abrasion resistance, low visibility) are needed.

Key Features

• 100% fluorocarbon — manufactured from Seaguar’s PVDF fluorocarbon resin; near-water refractive index for underwater low-visibility; sinking buoyancy; consistent abrasion resistance and low stretch from surface to core, not a fluorocarbon coating over a nylon base
• Ultra-smooth surface texture — exceptionally smooth surface finish for minimal friction through rod guides during the cast and retrieve; developed for competition fishing where casting precision and line management speed are performance requirements
• High abrasion resistance — rated at approximately 10 times the abrasion resistance of regular nylon monofilament of equivalent diameter; maintains line strength after repeated contact with structure, reef, rock sub-line rigs and sharp-toothed species
• Low-visibility underwater — fluorocarbon’s near-water refractive index makes the line significantly less detectable to cautious fish in clear water compared to nylon monofilament; important for competition fishing where fish are often pressured and line-shy
• 100m spool — full main-line quantity for raft and boat fishing rigs and sufficient for extended rock fishing sub-line use without the spool running short mid-session
• Made in Japan — manufactured in Japan to Seaguar’s production standards

Size Guide

• #1.0 / #1.2 — light competition fishing, finesse lure leader and light rock sub-line; bream and light estuary species in pressured, clear-water conditions
• #1.5 / #1.75 / #2.0 — general lure leader and rock sub-line; bream, snapper and flathead; the most versatile sizes in the range for inshore lure and rock fishing applications
• #2.5 / #3.0 — heavier lure leader and rock sub-line; larger snapper, drummer and heavier estuary species from rock platforms and inshore boats
