warrior<br />
Warrior Carp line is formulated and extruded to Fox’s<br />
stringent specification. This creates a line that is<br />
consistent, durable and has an excellent wet knot<br />
strength; features and qualities normally associated with<br />
premium priced monofilaments. Warrior is extremely<br />
tough, hard wearing, yet limp and manageable.<br />
Incorporating a wet knot strength that is consistently<br />
strong and reliable when tied correctly with grinner or<br />
palomar knots, each of the line classes will provide a knot<br />
strength very close to that printed on the spool. Available<br />
in a choice of two colours, low viz platinum grey or dark<br />
camo green, there are three breaking strains 10lb, 12lb<br />
and 15lbs.<br />

warrior®<br />
& barbuster®<br />
Like all Fox monofilaments, Warrior and<br />
Barbuster have consistent diameters<br />
throughout their length and<br />
exceptional wet knot strength. Barbuster<br />
has already established itself as a favourite<br />
with anglers who fish snaggy waters due to<br />
its high abrasion resistance. Warrior has a<br />
similar high specification, but is priced ultra<br />
competitively. The Fox range<br />
of monofilaments is probably the most<br />
comprehensive available, with something<br />
to suit every angler.<br />

barbuster line<br />
£10.99<br />
barbuster<br />
Barbuster has been developed utilising similar technology to Soft<br />
Steel and has undergone the same rigorous field testing. It has<br />
been developed with the focus on providing superior abrasion<br />
resistance. It still retains the key characteristics of exceptional<br />
wet knot strength and consistent diameter needed to make a<br />
great <strong>carp</strong> line. It has few equals when fishing in snaggy and<br />
weedy waters for large <strong>carp</strong>. Available in three breaking strains.<br />

When Soft Steel was launched over a<br />
decade ago, it quickly established itself as<br />
the line of choice for many <strong>carp</strong> anglers.<br />
Having experienced huge success with the<br />
Specialist Carp Line, two further Soft<br />
Steel items followed, Specialist Mono and<br />
Tapered Mono leaders.<br />
We’ve taken Soft Steel one step further,<br />
and added a camouflage effect. This exciting<br />
feature uses modern technology to<br />
change the colour of the monofilament<br />
every 15 to 20cm which breaks up the<br />
outline; a major advantage in clear water<br />
conditions. Whilst the focus and individual<br />
characteristics vary between all Soft<br />
Steel items, independent laboratory tests<br />
reveal them all to be extremely strong,<br />
supple and lose very little strength when<br />
wet or knotted.<br />

soft steel camo<br />
Camo Soft Steel uses advanced dyeing technology<br />
to create a ‘camo’ pattern with five different tonal<br />
colours that alternate every 15-20cms. This breaks<br />
up the shape and appearance of the line helping it<br />
to blend in and disappear, whatever the surroundings.<br />
A definite edge when in the pursuit of <strong>carp</strong> in<br />
clear waters.<br />

soft steel <strong>carp</strong> line<br />
Displaying high abrasion resistance coupled with<br />
superb suppleness, Soft Steel is a line that has<br />
passed every conceivable test with flying colours.<br />
Despite its abrasion resistance, the line is<br />
remarkably limp and resists line twist very well. The<br />
neutral brown colour of this excellent mono is the<br />
finishing touch on what many leading <strong>carp</strong> anglers<br />
consider to be the ultimate <strong>carp</strong> mono.<br />

Max Cottis<br />
I was instrumental in the<br />
development of Soft Steel.<br />
I wanted a soft, supple,<br />
memory free monofilament as<br />
these properties ensure<br />
smooth effortless casting<br />
which adds vital yards. Any<br />
line must have excellent knot<br />
strength (I’ve yet to be shown<br />
a way of fishing without one),<br />
but many of the lines we<br />
tested performed admirably on<br />
a straight line pull, but as<br />
soon as a knot was added,<br />
the breaking strain would fall<br />
by as much as 50%. Unlike<br />
some lines, the breaking strain<br />
stated on a spool of Soft<br />
Steel is based on a well tied<br />
grinner or palomar knot, not a<br />
straight line pull. For such a<br />
soft line, Soft Steel has<br />
excellent abrasion resistance<br />
and the neutral colour makes<br />
it suitable for most types of<br />
fishing including weed, snags<br />
and even clear water.<br />
The formulation of the new<br />
camouflage Soft Steel is<br />
identical to the original, but<br />
the constantly changing<br />
colouration breaks up the<br />
outline of the monofilament<br />
against the bottom. On hard<br />
fished waters where the fish<br />
have become extremely<br />
cautious, the use of Camo<br />
Soft Steel in conjunction with<br />
a 450mm length of leadcore<br />
leader is one of the most<br />
effective ways of disguising<br />
the tackle above the lead.<br />

mainline & leaders<br />
Braided mainlines have<br />
become a popular choice<br />
for specialist anglers.<br />
As well as offering a low<br />
diameter compared to<br />
the equivalent breaking<br />
strain of monofilament,<br />
braids offer increased<br />
sensitivity and longer<br />
casting potential. Fox<br />
offer a choice of two<br />
braided mainlines:<br />
Gravitron for general<br />
all-round work and<br />
Submerge Plus, which<br />
incorporates a newly<br />
developed super<br />
heavy fibre. For <strong>2007</strong>,<br />
there are two new<br />
specialist braids a Spod<br />
and Marker version and a<br />
Floater fishing braid.<br />

controller floater braid<br />
Controller Floater Braid genuinely improves<br />
surface fishing results by providing direct<br />
control of the float and giving lightening fast<br />
reaction when required. The supple braid<br />
floats perfectly and is coloured to resemble<br />
surface weed. With a knotted breaking<br />
strain of 12lb and a low diameter to maximise<br />
casting distance, Controller Braid is<br />
constructed using 100% Dyneema and features<br />
a hard wearing woven structure for<br />
superb strength and abrasion resistance.<br />

tb spod braid<br />
TB Spod Braid has been developed for heavy<br />
duty bait rocket and spod work.<br />
Incorporating ultra-strong, bonded Dyneema<br />
filaments with a breaking strain of over<br />
30lbs, TB Spod Braid is incredibly tough and<br />
hard wearing and can be used without a<br />
shock leader for all but the heaviest spods.<br />
A tight weave and low diameter allows<br />
smooth, extreme range casting with minimal<br />
wind knots and tangles. Buoyant fluorescent<br />
yellow filaments ensure the braid is visible in<br />
all conditions - this can prove invaluable<br />
when positioning rods around the spodded<br />
area, preventing tangles and crossovers.<br />

illusion ® shockleader<br />
Illusion is extruded from a hard wearing,<br />
pure fluorocarbon formula. Illusion is 78%<br />
denser than water and doesn’t absorb<br />
water, so it retains 100% knot strength.<br />
When used as a hooklink, being virtual<br />
invisibile in water and with a fairly stiff<br />
memory, Illusion is ideal for anti-eject and<br />
stiff rigs. The combination of toughness,<br />
invisibility and reduced stretch makes<br />
Illusion ideal for leaders and in clear water<br />
this is a great way of camouflaging the end<br />
tackle and keeping it close to the lake bed.<br />
