  • sakuma nite crystal

    Does anybody use this on a regular basis ? I'm thinking on getting some in the 16lb breaking strain and will be using it mostly in the tyne. Any info is appreciated, thanks.
    Regards Nicky.

      i,m using it in 16 on my 6500s and it seems fine.

      ive tried it in 20 on my 525s and it feels a little too thin for the rough stuff.

        I bought a big bulk spool of it last year 18lb I use it on a couple of my reels, it's diameter is really thin though. Sakuma night crystal or diawa tornement. It's not a bad mono at all. Give it a try.
        Always got it!

              daiwa tournament will be a bit thicker than the night crystal for the same breaking strain.

                  Aye it is mate by 0.05 I'd prefer the diawa but the Sakuma is not that bad of a line.
                  Always got it!

                    Great line is Nite Crystal. I prefer the Dark & Clear Crystal myself but its still great. Good knot strength and smooth casting.

                    Definitely worth a try bud

                        I've looked for it in a couple of local shops but no luck, anyone know a localish shop that has a good stock of it as thinking of giving it a shot too.

                          I Think moonfleet might sell it but you can order direct from sakuma and its free delivery and normally get it within 2 days
