Stewart Hudson –
Used this line on a spring creek with small trout. The presentation was incredibly subtle and the flies floated naturally. Great for tight spots where you need to avoid spooking the fish.
Jan Turner –
Felt very sensitive when casting. Worked well with dry flies in a small stream. Not ideal for long casts, but perfect for close-range fishing.

Trout were easily caught with this line. The delicate action helped me get better strikes without disturbing the water. Highly recommended for small streams.
