Dorisea 16 Strand 500 lb. Braided Fishing Line – 500 Meter Spool, Hi Vis Yellow

Extreme Power. Unmatched Durability. Built for the Biggest Battles.

When it comes to heavy-duty fishing situations where gear failure is simply not an option, the Dorisea 16 Strand 500 lb Braided Fishing Line stands in a class of its own. Designed for anglers who pursue the largest and most powerful fish in the world, this professional-grade braid combines extreme strength, superior abrasion resistance, and high visibility into one powerhouse package. The 500-meter spool ensures you have all the line you need for deep drops, massive reels, and long offshore runs, while the Hi Vis Yellow color guarantees visibility when it matters most.

16-Strand Construction for Maximum Strength and Smoothness

Most braided lines on the market are made from 4 or 8 strands. Dorisea’s 16-strand engineering takes performance to another level. By weaving together 16 high-strength UHMWPE (Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) fibers into a tight, round profile, this braid offers several distinct advantages:

* Incredible Strength Density: More fibers mean a stronger line capable of withstanding tremendous pulling force without fraying or breaking.
* Round, Consistent Shape: Maintains smooth travel through rod guides, reducing friction and enhancing casting distance.
* Ultra-Smooth Surface: Eliminates the “buzz” or “hum” that some braids create when under tension, offering a quieter, more controlled experience.

The result is a fishing line that not only boasts an astonishing 500-pound test strength but also maintains consistent performance under the most extreme conditions.

The Raw Power of 500 lb Test

A 500 lb test rating is not for the faint of heart. This is the line you choose when targeting true giants—think bluefin tuna, marlin, swordfish, massive sharks, goliath grouper, and other ocean behemoths. At this strength, the Dorisea 16 Strand braid offers:

* Unyielding Lifting Power: Whether you’re hauling a giant halibut from the depths or turning a huge amberjack away from wrecks, this line provides brute-force pulling ability.
* Confidence Under Pressure: No matter how intense the fight or how sudden the run, the line maintains its integrity without snapping under strain.
* Long-Lasting Durability: Even after repeated battles with monster fish, the tight 16-strand weave resists wear and degradation.

Superior Abrasion Resistance

Big fish often live in rough, dangerous territory—reefs, rocks, wrecks, and heavy structure. That’s why abrasion resistance is just as important as raw strength. Dorisea’s 16-strand construction offers a thick, tightly woven surface that shrugs off scrapes and friction from underwater obstacles.

Whether you’re deep dropping for swordfish over rocky bottom or wrestling a goliath grouper from under a pier, this braid is designed to hold up against the toughest environments. It’s equally effective in saltwater and freshwater, resisting the damaging effects of salt, sun, and repeated stress.

Zero Stretch for Extreme Sensitivity

Despite its enormous strength, the Dorisea 16 Strand braid features virtually zero stretch—a crucial advantage in deep-water and big-game fishing. With no give in the line, you’ll feel even the slightest change in tension, making it possible to detect strikes from hundreds of feet below the surface.

This direct sensitivity also translates into more powerful and immediate hook sets. In big-game fishing, where hooks must penetrate tough, bony mouths, this lack of stretch ensures that every pound of your pull is transferred directly to the hook point.

Hi Vis Yellow for Maximum Line Awareness

In big-game and deep-water fishing, visibility is key—for both you and your crew. The Hi Vis Yellow color makes it easy to track your line at a glance, even from a distance or in choppy seas. This enhanced visibility offers several benefits:

* Improved Crew Coordination: When multiple lines are in the water, spotting your line quickly helps avoid tangles and crossovers.
* Better Bite Detection: In calm conditions, you can visually see subtle line movements signaling a strike.
* Night and Low-Light Fishing: Hi Vis Yellow stands out in the glow of deck lights, keeping you in control during overnight fishing sessions.

While the color is bright above the surface, in deep water it loses visibility to fish long before it loses visibility to you, making it a practical choice for both angler and stealth.

Generous 500-Meter Spool

The 500-meter spool is tailor-made for large-capacity reels used in offshore and heavy-duty fishing. This generous length ensures:

* Full Spooling of Big Reels: Perfect for large conventional and electric reels designed for deep dropping and trolling.
* Long Leaders and Top Shots: Gives you enough line to run long monofilament or fluorocarbon leaders while still maintaining full braid backing.
* Backup for Multiple Outfits: One spool can be used to fill several reels if you’re running smaller setups or need extra line for specialized rigs.

Versatile Big-Game Applications

While it’s clearly designed for extreme fishing, the Dorisea 16 Strand 500 lb braid shines in a variety of big-game and heavy-duty scenarios:

* Offshore Trolling: Pulling large lures or live baits for marlin, tuna, and wahoo.
* Deep Dropping: Targeting swordfish, grouper, and tilefish in 800–1,500 feet of water.
* Shark Fishing: From the beach or boat, where maximum pulling power is essential.
* Heavy Structure Battles: Extracting massive fish from wrecks, reefs, and piers without fear of break-offs.

Performance Tips for Optimal Use

1. Use Heavy-Duty Tackle: Pair this line with a reel and rod rated for extreme drag pressures to fully utilize its power.
2. Knot Selection Matters: Use secure knots like the Palomar, Uni, or PR knot for maximum strength retention.
3. Leader Protection: For species with sharp teeth or abrasive mouths, pair with a heavy monofilament or wire leader.
4. Regular Inspection: Even the toughest braid benefits from checking for frays after each fight.

Why Dorisea 16 Strand 500 lb Braid Stands Out

* Extreme Strength: 500 lb test for the heaviest applications.
* Advanced 16-Strand Weave: Smooth, round, and durable construction.
* High Abrasion Resistance: Stands up to structure, rocks, and rough terrain.
* Zero Stretch: Instant feedback and powerful hook sets.
* Hi Vis Yellow: Excellent line visibility in all conditions.
* Bulk Length: 500 meters for deep drops and big reels.

Its combination of unmatched tensile strength, ultra-smooth construction, high abrasion resistance, and vibrant visibility make it one of the most dependable braids for heavy-duty and offshore fishing.
