Favorite saltwater lines?
Hey I’m planning a trip to the Yucatán this winter, and sorting out which rods/reels/lines etc to bring along. I realized that my experiences with saltwater fly lines is fairly limited, so I’m curious what you guys like and why. I thought it might be an interesting topic to some. So far of the lines I’ve used for saltwater, I was mainly fishing larger sized flies so I liked Airflo’s Tropical Punch, SA’s Mastery Tarpon, and Rio’s Outbound Short. Decided I am not as crazy about SA “textured” fly lines; although they do shoot extremely well, the texture really starts to cut up fingers. As I understand it their “sharkskin” lines are even more abrasive?
Anyway, what are some saltwater lines you like, and are there any you avoid?
Cheers,
JB
