switch line recommendations

[steve2010]

I'm pretty new to spey/switch casting so I'd like opinion of some seasoned vets.
I'm looking for a switch line for my tcx 6119.
Want to use it for nymphing.
Been looking at the orvis and rio switch lines.
I'm relatively comfortable throwign a 400 gr skagit flight on this rod if that's any point of reference.

advice is appreciated.

Some would use the Rio Indicator line too.

The Rio Atlantic Salmon/Steelhead line is good too.

If you're looking to do a lot of roll casting and water loading casts with indicator and multi nymph rigs I highly recommend the rio steelhead float line. I use a 7wt on my 6 wt 10' rod and it works awesome!

A 6/7 Rio switch or 8 Steelhead/Salmon would be a nice match for your description.

Thanks for all the input so far.
Any one use the Orvis switch lines?
Any comment on how they compare with the Rio's?

[aaron]

The Orvis are pretty nice, a little light so for your 6 I'd use a 7.

Steve, I've use an Atlantic Steelhead line for years. Get one at least two weights over your switch rod. It can do short spey casts even with a split shot nymphing rig and is excellent for mending.

I agree with Jeff C I have a 7wf on my 5wt performance ply (press powell rod) those lines work great for short swinging and nymphing
