Line for new 8 wt??
Just bought a Teton Tioga 8LA off of Ebay and need to spool her up. I have
always been a RIO guy, but am wondering if there is a line out there that might work better for me? I have sppol for the reel so I was thinking about dropping the $$ and getting RIO's Versi-Tip line, but wouldn't object to getting another spool if there is a newer line out there that is more popular? I will probably use the reel on one of my sage 8 wt's for Silver Salmon Fishing this fall up in Alaska so any recommendations would be great. Happy Fishing Matt

If you do not need a floating line, perhaps the Rio Dredger would be a
better choice. the really get down. The 15' tips get down 3or 4 ' at best. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- "Are you still wasting your time with spam?...

Rio and Airflow make the best ( 15' ) multi-tip lines.
You get a floater, clear slow sinker, type 3 and type 6 (all 15'). We then add a 20'-25' (~200 grn) tip/head to the selection for deeper stuff. -- Bill Kiene Kiene's Fly Shop Sacramento, CA, USA Web site: www.kiene.com "matrobw" wrote in message news:aiFCc.101155$Sw.15445@attbi_s51...
