I bought one of these in DT5 for my Granger Aristocrat and it's a
very good match. But a silk line is not just for 'boo. I've put it
on a 5wt Sage RPL and it's really nice there too.

It sounds terribly expensive, and it is, but consider that with
proper care it will outlast 4 or 5 $50 plastic lines.


I think I'd like fishing a silk line, but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't
take care of it the way it needs. What's your routine when using a silk
line? Do you usually fish one or just occassionally?
