The Varivas Light Game Fluorocarbon Shock Leader is made from premium grade 100% fluorocarbon material which offers superb abrasion resistance and zero underwater visibility.
The Varivas Light Game Fluorocarbon Shock Leader is made from premium grade 100% fluorocarbon material which offers superb abrasion resistance and zero underwater visibility.
It has been designed as a leader material for Light Rock Fishing. Attaching a short length to the end of your braid helps to improve presentation, reduce tangles, provide an abrasion resistant ‘shock’ link and also dramatically reduce line visibility to weary fish. It represents a top choice for LRF shore anglers who fish with lures. By adding fluorocarbon leader to your braid, you can cut down on tangles, if the lure doubles back onto the line.
The Varivas Light Game Shock Leader has SP-T Coating, which increases water resistance and durability. At the same time it offers high sensitivity and very low stretch properties for snappy prey.
Each pack comes with a knot sheet showing the best way to join the fluorocarbon to your braid (it is in Japanese but you can get the hang of it by following the images).

SP-T Technology
The Varivas’ SP-T is a super tough coating with resin film, that covers the surface of the line, reducing water absorption, improving wear resistance and flight distance, and increasing durability.
NON (Non-Stress) Coating
Varivas’ NON (Non-Stress) coating protects better against water absorption, ultraviolet light, saltwater, and friction. This specialized coating also adds strength of the line.
Fluorocarbon Fishing Line
Wear resistant and sensitive, fluorocarbon is commonly used as shock leader. It has excellent wear resistance when it comes into contact with obstacles. Its high specific gravity make it effective for fishing tackle and lures that require sinking. Although conventional fluorocarbon lacks flexibility, innovations in material and manufacturing methods are now producing a more flexible fluorocarbon.
