SWOT Analysis
Strength: Monofilament fishing line is made from a single strand of nylon that gives it strength without sacrificing flexibility. It has high breaking strength and abrasion resistance which helps it withstand wear and tear during fishing.
Weakness: Monofilament line is prone to breaking if it gets nicked or cut and has low visibility in water which makes it harder for anglers to see strikes. It also loses strength and stiffness when wet.
Opportunity: Growing popularity of recreational fishing around the world and increasing spending on fishing equipment and gears is fueling demand for fishing lines including monofilament lines. Emergence of eco-friendly and biodegradable fishing lines also presents an opportunity.
Threats: Presence of substitutes like braided and fluorocarbon fishing lines that offer better hardness, feel and invisibility in water thus gaining preference over monofilament lines. Stringent regulations around the use of nylon and other synthetic materials also poses a threat.
