![]() "Frank Reid" Figured out a cure for this. Before first use or taken out of storage for the winter, apply some flexament or other sealer to the very end of the line. The line absorbs water through the core and this is what causes it to sink. Doesn't happen anymore unless I get little cracks in the line from use. -- Frank Reid that, and after a couple of false casts and I will dress the first few feet of a line while I am on the shore. Actually, I have some old Cortland patches and I put a dollop of Dab (by Cortland) on the old patch and use that while I am stream side....works great. Makes that line sit right on top of the water. I'll even dress the first few feet of my leader at times. john |
