Troubleshooting
Line tangles easily
Ensure your reel is not over or under spooled. Check that your rod rings are not damaged or worn, which can cause line friction. For hooklengths, ensure they are stored correctly and not excessively coiled.
Breaking strain seems lower than expected
Verify the knot used; some knots significantly reduce breaking strain. Ensure the line is not nicked or damaged, which weakens it. Use a fresh section of line for testing.
Line memory is high
Allow the line to relax in warm water for a few minutes before use. Be careful not to over-tighten the spool on the reel, as this can exacerbate memory.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The N-Gauge line is designed for tying directly to terminal tackle such as swivels or hooks. Use reliable knots like the Palomar knot or the Uni knot for best results. Ensure knots are tightened carefully and tested before casting.
