Default Double Taper Question.

Hello,
Wante to try some double taper line..Have a friend who is getting rid
of some DT line that he never used, I have a 5/6 weight Redington
moderate action 9' rod. He has a 4wt DT and a 6 wt DT for sale.
Wondering if I should try it out but not sure if It would be wiser to
go up a weight from the rating or down a weight from it...or just wait
and buy some 5wt DT.
Just looking for some help or experiences..
THanks,
Brian



Go with the DT at the rating of the rod. Go for the 6-wt, and I'd prefer a
5 myself. Don't go for the 4.

For a rod that heavy, if you already have a WF that you're happy with on
it, I'd just leave that line on and save the bucks.
