PULSE 9 BRAID SHOCK LEADER 0.20mm - 100m

Guru Pulse 9 Braid Shock Leader is a round, supple, low-stretch braided shock leader for modern feeder fishing. The line uses Centre Core Technology: a central core braid runs through eight tightly braided outer fibres. This nine-strand construction provides a smooth profile, low friction and high breaking strain relative to its diameter.

As a braided shock leader, Pulse 9 absorbs the strain of powerful casts while retaining the direct bite detection of a low-stretch line. The 0.20 mm version comes on a 100-metre spool and is particularly designed for fishing and casting at greater distances.

Frequently asked questions

What do I use the Guru Pulse 9 Shock Leader for?

You use this braided line as a shock leader between the main line and the feeder rig. It helps absorb peak loads during powerful casts and provides extra confidence when heavy feeder fishing.

What is the advantage of the nine-strand construction?

The central core and eight outer fibres together form a round, smooth line. This supports smooth line flow and reduces friction during casting.

Which knots are suitable for this braided shock leader?

Guru recommends the Palomar knot, Grinner knot and Back-to-Back Grinner knot, among others. Tie each knot carefully, tighten it evenly and test it before casting.
