What the maker puts in writing

  • 300 m spools · clear

  • Smooth surface, easy to knot
  • Made in Berkley’s own line factory in the United States
  • For pike, perch, zander, trout, carp and sea bass

The claim nobody else makes

Hergestellt in Berkleys eigener Schnurherstellungsfabrik in den Vereinigten Staaten.

Six other listings on this shelf say nothing about who made the line or where. Line is extruded, and the extrusion is the product — a maker who owns the plant is making a claim about consistency, which is the one property of monofilament you cannot see.

What is missing

No diameter. No breaking strain.

Those are the two numbers a monofilament is bought on. Four other listings here publish a diameter and two publish a strength. This one publishes neither, and names six species instead.

Where it can be bought

Germany 8,99 €, France 9,99 €, Spain 10,99 €, Britain 10,95 €, Italy 11,04 €, United States 46,38 €.

Availability

Read on the day this page was built: 9 € to 11 € at the German, French, Italian and Spanish Amazon shops.

Priced in another currency: the American and British Amazon shops sell it outside the euro, so the range above excludes it.

Read from Keepa on the day this page was last revised; stock and price both move without notice.

Any price inside this text was read on 29 September 2026; the live one sits at the top of the page.

    • No diameter, no breaking strain and no length — exactly as on the first reference

    Best for: Whichever diameter the selector says this one is — which is the only question worth asking about it

    EAN
    5901779680163
    • The calibration claim is the right one to make about monofilament — a line is only as strong as its thinnest point
    • Named for three specific techniques rather than for a list of species
    • No diameter, no breaking strain and no length anywhere in the listing

    Best for: A cheap general line, once the variant selector has told you what diameter you are buying
