Gardner Target Speciskin Hooklink

Has anyone used Gardner Target Speciskin? Wondering if it's any good and is maybe a bit thinner than other coated braids?
 
Yes and it is excellent. Strip back to leave a supple section about 5cm above the hook. Choice of colours to suit your river bed and 10lbBS option means you can have a lower BS than your mainline (I use 12lb).

Gardner Target Specimen hooks (barbless) are also an excellent product.
 
Also have a look at Atomic Jel-E-Wyre. I've been using this for the last 4 seasons, one of the finest diameter coated braids I've come across.
