I don't have a problem with nonstandard line weightds as I can't tell the
difference most of the time. I bought one of those little line scales and found
that for the most part they all weigh within the range. I do have a couple of
those red pike lines that were sold one as an 8 weight and one as a 10 weight
that weigh essentialy the same. No wonder I was having trouble getting the 10
weight rod to load well when tha line marked 10 weight actualy weighed as an 8
weight line. I figure this was just an OOPS', but till I weighed the line I had
not figured out why for sure for about five years.
