What can one expect in the way of life expectancy of fly lines. I
know that if you use them a lot or abuse them a lot (leaving them in a
hot vehicle all summer or dragging them over concrete will shorten
their useful life).

Gene I have had Double Taper Cortland 333 and 444 fly lines for over 6
years. When one end wears out turn it around. Another thing "not to do" is
step on it.
