Default need new floating fly line - advice

Thanks Bill ... will look into the GPX. I'll fish it with either a Sage SP or
RP.

There are tons of good fly lines now. If you have a line that is a few years
old, a new technology fly line would be a good thing for ~$60USD.

The "555" did not really do well. Back to the drawing board. The 444 Lazer,
444SL and 444 Peach are good but dated.

The most popular by volume for us is the 3M/SA/Mastery 'Trout' and 'GPX'
(which is a little heavier than stated to load up faster rods better).

The Sage 'Performance' line is very nice.

Airflow has a new 'Platinum' series that seems to cast very well.

The Rio 'Grand' is a little heavier than the size stated too for faster rods
and has the new welded front loop.
