Doubt it but:
> A new line so thin and strong that it could replace braid is about to be launched into the market.
> The company behind the development is World Fishing Tackle, which has been working on the secret project for 2.5 years.
> The line, called Gliss, is made from extruded hmpe fibres and…combines the qualities of both a monofilament and a braid.
> “Gliss looks like a mono, but has huge advantages, including almost zero stretch. Other lines have at least three times more stretch. The low stretch means it is incredibly sensitive… It also has extremely low diameter-to-breaking strength ratios.”
> …it can be produced far more quickly and cheaply than braid…takes around 100 hours to produce 1,000 meters of braid…but he can manufacture the same length of Gliss in a matter of minutes.
Hope it comes in something other than pink.
