Post by John Waters »

Does anyone know who produces a 9 weight double taper line in an intermediate or slow sink density?

Thanks in advance,

John

Hi John,

To my knowledge you’ll need to buy Chinese.

I know this guy, Colin. Lines are ok. Not SA standard. But I’ve tried them and they are functional. The lines he sent me were true to weight and he even sent me a DT sinking line. Generally the lines are a bit softer and not silky smooth. Fine for heads. Maybe even better for heads (the soft part).

Cheers, Paul

Thanks Paul, much appreciated. I want the line for an Australian fly accuracy event so "softer" is good.

Thanks again,

John
