The ultimate new braid in the J-Braid family, Daiwa J-Braid Grand x8 is some of the strongest and most abrasion resistant 8-carrier braided fishing line ever put on the market. Yet, despite its durability, J-Braid Grand x8 is also extremely soft, supple, and easy-to-spool.

How is fishing line with such remarkable characteristics possible? J-Braid Grand x8 is spun with IZANAS, a new, state-of-the-art, high-modulus fiber that is leaps and bounds stronger than any other fiber material on the market. For example, according to Toyobo Industrial Materials (the maker of IZANAS), it's roughly four times stronger than polyester nylon (what most monofilament is made of), twice as strong as fluorocarbon, and is even stronger than aramid, a class of military- and aerospace-grade fibers that includes Kevlar (aka the stuff bulletproof vests are made of), among others. Available in 150 and 300 yard spools in test strengths ranging for 6 pound to 80 pound.

 Daiwa J-Brave Grand, our premium braided line, eight carrier, four times more abrasion resistance than our four carrier, it's soft, supple, more abrasion resistant, the best of both worlds, it comes in at a new color, it's a gray light, new to the industry. What makes it special, it's a new material that we've introduced called Izanos material. It is an eight carrier line, so you're getting eight strands woven together like our standard eight carrier, but this new material allows us to be four times more abrasion resistant than our 4X. So like I said, it's the best of both worlds, it's quiet and supple to the guides like our eight carrier, but now you can fish it around structure, rocks, any type of very heavy vegetation, it's still very very thin, it comes in three different colors, so we have dark green, we have violet blue, and a brand new color that we introduced into the industry, it's called gray light, which what's cool is that it's it's very visible above the water, but blends in really great under the water, and looks great on your all your reels and rods, so if you want the best of both worlds in line, the new J-BRADE GRAND is what you want to put in your hands and put on your reel

With three great options available when it comes to braided line, the J-Braid line is sure to have one that will fit your needs.

J-Braid X4, J-Braid X8 and J-Braid Grand: A Breakdown

Wind knot machine!

 Let's proceed to testing the brake test. Again, this one is advertised to be 16 kg or 35 lbs brake test. It initially broke at 8.8 kg at the knot

Disclaimer: This is an unbiased review and lines could vary between different batches. I have purchased this myself and this is what I have received so this is what I have tested. Break tests and other specs vary depending on how manufacturers test their lines.

Here I review a fishing line to see if it really lives up to its advertised specs.

Daiwa J-Braid Grand X8 Fishing Line
0.20mm diameter
16kg / 35 lbs

I will be doing more fishing line reviews as well as terminal tackles such as swivels, bait clips, and many more.

Can I recommend this? I really do. That's why I feel it's important to know the actual break test (not the advertised specs) of lines so i can use them where it seems fit for purpose.
I only use 15-20lbs lines, with 18 lbs as my personal "sweet spot," as I believe this is sufficient for most fish species that I can catch from the shore.

I will say it is a really good line having that thin of a diameter and breaking at 11 kilograms - that is just incredible. 

So click on the Like button if you have found this video informational.

And comment below what lines you would like for me to review or test.

Thanks for watching and happy fishing!

Daiwa J Braid Grand Review - YouTube

 I have had good luck with J-Braid GRAND 8. Only time will tell on the durability. I haven't tried it bass fishing. suppose it will be fine

Wind Knots easy

 I hope the seller doesn’t give me a hard time with the return and tests the line themselves.

 (Tested 8 times and scale was checked for accuracy) I was very surprised because Diawa J-braid Grand x8 has a great reputation for having actual breaking strengths well in excess of rated strength. Yet, the line I received broke at only 83% of rated strength. I hope the seller doesn’t give me a hard time with the return and tests the line themselves.

6 lb line breaks at 5 lbs

Not sure if I received a defective line but avoid buying this at all cost since its a waste of money
