Tennis racquet strings...fishing line...guess it makes sense...
Gamma has been a verable force in tennis string for years. Now they are growing their fishing line business. I guess that makes sense as a natural product & line extension. Gamma began producing fly fishing line four years ago when it introduced Frog Hair products. This year is is launching its Edge and High Performance lines this year.
They all have the patented irradiation process company founder Harry Ferrari developed 30 years ago for tennis racquet string.
While fishing line typically is made by first melting copolymer and then drawing it like taffy until the desired pound test weight and diameter are achieved, Gamma molecularly alters the copolymer using an energy more powerful than that used in microwave ovens.
