Proving itself with over 500 IGFA and ANSA records, Platypus Pre-test is an example of good old Aussie know how. Platypus Pre-test offers confidence that no other line in the world has the guts to do, with the highest test written in black and white on the spool. Every 1000 metres of Pretest is tested three times with the highest test written on the spool. Just because Platypus Pre-test has been around for over 30 years does not mean that it has remained the same. Platypus is constantly updating techniques, tracking down new nylon resins and additives to bring you the best possible nylon monofilament in the world. Platypus Pre-test has an engineered stretch, which acts as a shock absorber for those long battles with trophy fish. Platypus uses its exclusive hard annealing process to provide excellent abrasion resistance and reliable quality.

This line is of easy use , knots well and small fish are not put off by its colour or thickness being 24kg , low stretch means good connectivity , You could do a lot worse for the money !

Good strong line pulled in a elephant fish easily 😊
Perfect for the reel size and some light beach fishing
Trusted breaking strain for fishing line class. SurfCasts very well from multiplier reels (overheads), Bimini Twists & Slim Beauty knots work well with this line. Recommended.
I Always buy Platypus Pre Test for quality and security of the catch
Platypus line has never let me down!! I've used it for over 40years and it's been the BEST line I've in all conditions, strong, abrasion resistant, Australian and at the right price! I would definitely recommend PLATYPUS line!!
I bought this line as a leader for my estuary fishing. Being transparent it does the job very well. Some videos on Youtube direct you to buy Trout Clear Mono but this brand of Mono does the exact same job and at a third of the price.
Platypus lines are well known here in Australia for high quality and durable lines and the 10kg pretest is no exception. This is my favourite line to use while trolling and beach fishing.
