This line performs well in both bank casts and roll casts. The dry-slick coating keeps it smooth even in wet conditions. The dual welded loops make connecting to leader easy. I noticed the color change at 30 feet, which helps with line management.

Great for quick casts to banks. The heavy head loads the rod fast, which saves time. The orange rear is visible in the water, helping me track the line. A bit stiff when first used, but settles in.
