Posted: Tue Jun 05, 2007 4:07 pm Post subject: Sinking lines
It's time to replace my sinking line. I've had an older version of Orvis' wonderline and was curious if someone had a different suggestion. As far as sinking lines, this is the only one I've had experience with. Although I am a big time Orvis supporter, I have not been impressed with the floating wonderline I bought a year ago. It seems to have a mind of it's own. Are the sinking lines as easily knotted up as the floating lines? Over the years I have really only bought RIO lines and Orvis lines. If there is something I'm missing out on, I love to hear about it.

For stillwaters I really like Cortland 444 Clear Camo Intermediate - sink rate of 1.5" to 2" inches per second, a very soft supple supple line. I Also like the SA Mastery Stillwater lines which are not a supple as the 444 Clear Camo and tend to be a bit more durable for me.
