SPIRIT LAKE, IOWA - Anglers seeking an ideal baitcast or larger spinning reel, fishing line with extreme strength and ultimate sensitivity will find Berkley's new FireLine XDS just what they've been looking for. Berkley FireLine XDS is the roundest, smoothest and most durable of all the superlines.

FireLine XDS offers greatly improved color-fastness and will not "fuzz" with use. Anglers will note its better flexibility and smoothness right out of the box. The smoother line surface means easier casting. The exceptional reel stacking characteristics of this line contributes even more to its castability, handling and performance.

Superior strength for line diameter is another feature of FireLine XDS that appeals to avid fishermen. Unlike many braided superlines, the knot strength of thermal filament Fireline is at the rated test of the line itself. This means a properly tied Palomar knot is no longer the weak point between the fisherman and the fish.

FireLine XDS is ideal for baitcast reels. Line sizes are 35-pound test with 12-pound diameter, 50/15, 65/17, 80/20 and 100/30. The suggested retail price of a 150-yard spool starts at $21.99, starting at $41.99 for a 300-yard spool and starting at $131.99 for a 1000-yard spool.
