fly line review

[Carl Blackledge]

Lucky,

I have never believed anything from some type of "shoot out" article either fly lines-fly reels or fly rods. Not sure if they are all BS, but maybe.

What I do believe in is what works best for me and the particular situations I am fishing in. simple example would be if I was fishing an Hex hatch I would certainly want a different taper floating fly line on my rod, then lets say if I was fishing with a midge pattern.

I think it would behoove a guy to go to the local fly shop and test several lines and see what works best with his own personal casting stroke, and his favorite rod. And he buys the right line for the right fishing circumstances for intended use. Not the line that some shoot out tells you to buy when they don't even know what your casting too, or what rod your casting with...Just my take on it
