I appreciate the responses Dave/Ken.
As you mentioned they are definitely expensive. Have either of you owned
a Sharkskin line long enough to know how durable they are and if you get
more life out of the line or are they about the same as a SA or Rio?


I've had the Sharkskin on my 7wt for only one season so far. If
it lasts as long as my last line it'll be several years before
I can answer durability questions. I fish for steelhead fewer
than 30 days a season so my lines don't see heavy use.
