Gosen J Square braid

Just wondering if anyone has used the Gosen J Square braid? What's it like?

Can't seem to find out online whether it is a 4 strand or an 8 strand. Looking for some PE2 to chuck on a Stella 4000 FI. Has to be colour coded as I will jig with it a lot but it will also see some casting.

Was just about to buy Sasame 8 carrier, but thought I'd see if anyone had good experience with the Gosen.

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.

Ok thanks

Hmm, think I might just get the Sasame stuff. More expensive, but looks pretty good and at least I know its 8 carrier, the other stuff is a gamble.

Hey Dan PM Ocean Side.
They carry shit loads of it and rate Gosen highly.
I'm sure they will have all the specs on it.

PS edit: For the below Shark1 I don't work for Oceanside, just recommended them as they stock the stuff.
Just to clarify.

Gosen 8ply Braid

Dan,

The Gosen J Square braid is 4 ply but very strong & reliable. 

The new Gosen 8ply is silky smooth/strong/reliable for casting or jigging. All us staff here use it on our reels including Stella's (cant fault it at all)
 

Thanks Boydy
