3 MOMOI FISHING LINE 3 MONOFILAMENT Momoi HiCatch The No. 1 Monofilament in the world Momoi products are tested to quality control standards before they are released for suppl y. Every drum/hank/spool is individually numbered to guarantee a quality control audit trail. Momoi mono is made with a hard outer core which culminates in extremely high abrasion resistance, promoting HiCatch abilit y, flexibility and less gear maintenance. Consistant quality ensures regular mono diameter, which means no weak points, producing less lost fish. Momoi HiCatch advantages: Guaranteed breaking strain. Best breaking strain for diameter. More effective fishing time. High catch rate. Less gear maintenance. Ultimately less cost. Mainline/Backbone Colours available: Clear White, Ice Blue, Blood Red, Sea Green & Smokey Blue.

7 MOMOI HICATCH IGFA LINE 7 Batterton on Mono: When the guys at Gourock approached me about trialling Momoi monofilament, I must admit I was a little apprehensive particularly as I had used my favourite brand without any problems for 10 years. Experience says, stick with proven formulas for optimum success. On the other hand, experience also whispers nothing ventured, nothing gained. So change I did! The guys provided me with 3kg, 4kg, 6kg and 8kg IG FA nylon in fluoro yellow (the hi visibility colour enables us to see the thin line so that we can keep track of hooked fish better and also helps prevent boats from running over their own lines when chasing fish). They also gave me 15kg, 24kg and 37kg IG FA in Ice Blue. For leader material I chose Momoi HiCatch 500lb. I noticed something different on the spool. Each one has it s own unique number and not just a batch number either. In addition, I also chose to try some Momoi fluorocarbon 400lb which I had used when fishing in Madeira. At the time we had been trolling through massive schools of bluefin tuna with very little success but after switching to fluorocarbon leader, results were almost immediate, with 500lb and 600lb bluefin tuna boated. While fluorocarbon does have many obvious advantages (such as excellent abrasion resistance, sinking quickly, long life (not susceptible to UV) and it s near invisibility in clear water situations making it the first choice for trolling dead or live baits), it really does perform in a similar manner to HiCatch Momoi leader when trolling lures. Unfortunately, due to weather conditions we were unable to do a lot of live baiting this season, but I continued to run Momoi fluorocarbon on one corner of the gear pattern. Since we changed to Momoi HiCatch, we have really fished hard and punished it. The line s come through with flying colours. All line classes have performed extremely well. I was told that the folks at Momoi have spent countless hours analyzing specific problems that plague IGFA lines, such as too much stretch, too thin a diameter and cases (or outer shells) that are too soft or limp. Extensive testing has resulted in Momoi developing a truly superior tournamentquality game line. Friction caused by drag pressure, and sometimes thousands of trips over various guides, usually wears down fishing line, but this line has a tough outer skin which provides incredible abrasion resistance. Consequently, it lasts longer and holds up under stresses that tournament, charter and recordchasing situations create. Momoi HiCatch has also arrived at the perfect amount of line stretch for increased hook setting power and great sensitivit y. I keep extensive logs on the fish we catch and I know that on one particular set of gear, we caught 20 fish without needing to change the top shot, as well as tagging and releasing two blue marlin and a stripie on the same lure without changing the leader. We checked the leader after each fish (which you should always do) and found no reason to change. With all these factors combined, the conclusion is that this mono lives up to it s claims. by John Batterton, skipper of Harlequin The #1 Monofilament in the World See following page for details

FLUOROCARBON LINE Fluorocarbon has numerous characteristics that have made it extremely popular in America. These include a thicker diameter than nylon monofilament, less specific gravity than nylon, a lower refractive index than nylon, resistance to any water absorpsion and less stretch than nylon monofilament. So if you want a line that is extremely abrasion resistant, sinks quicker to where you want to fish, is virtually invisible in water, maintains it s breaking strain in water, resists ultraviolet light and will dramatically improve your catch rate, then we suggest you give it a go. lb.

The hook sizes of other patterns are bound to differ to some extent; the reference number of a hook should therefore always be quoted together, and regarded as inseparable. Kirbed Straight Reversed POINTS Spear Point In the illustration above, the various parts of a fish Hollow Point hook are shown together with their names. The two most important dimensions of the hook are it s gap Eagle Beak Point and it s throat. The hook shown here is a Mustad Saltwater hook. Note the width of the gap, the distance between point and shank, and the depth of the throat Parot Beak Point of the hook. These generous dimensions make for a bigger bite, for deeper penetration of the point, and Maruto Round Point for better holding power. The weight of the fish is (Ground Point) carried high up on the centre of the bend. GOUROCK Hooks and Monofilament
