With the myriad of fly lines on the market today, would anyone care to
suggest a few?

Looking for 5-6 wt., floating, dt or wf for trout in streams.

Price $70

Thanks much...


Cortland 444 Peach, DT.

You'll cast as well as with any other line, catch fish if you've got it
in you, display a becoming frugality, and look elegant in the process.

Bought the 444 Peach today and caught 5 brook trout tonight, so, it works!

Thanks for suggesting it.

Cortland is now up to 555. I'm wondering what their next generation line
will be called. Surely not 666? They can't do that, can they? Will they
jump to 777, sort of like having no 13th floor on a skyscraper? But what
happens down the road, when they reach 999? What's next? 101010? Absurd.

I think they started this naming convention at 333. I hope the marketing
genius who thought this up has retired by now, for his sake.
