Buy the best line you can afford and then look after it. Dirty,

gritted lines crack. You lose distance, accuracy, control and wear

rod rings. Dont stand on your lines either, pushing them into

the mud and grit. Think how you store them. dont leave lines

damp and festering for long periods. Wash them periodically

in warm water with just a hint of detergent. nick Ha.

Buy the line you actually need. Double tapers are great for

turning over in tight, close situations. Fish at distance, though,

and youll be looking at a weight-forward. Weight-forwards

are good across the board still, running and salt. If youre

doing a lot of salt work, though, its worth buying a dedicated

saltwater line. Youll notice the difference. Intermediate

lines are useful, too and if youre serious about stillwaters,

build up a range of different sinkers. Hwa C.

Lines with as little memory as possible are great. I like

them to lie flat as pancakes. Thats where Hardy excels.

Fly fishing is about presentation as much as anything else

and a barbed wire line wont give you a chance. Jh Bai.

Match the line to the rod. Too many people dont understand

how critical this is. A light rod will be swamped by

a heavy line. A heavy rod wont even nod to a light one.

Line ratings really are there for a purpose.Chi ogb.

Line colour? Visibility is the key when it comes to take

detection especially with floating lines. I dont know about

trout seeing certain colours, but I do know its vital you see

a line move even a papers breadth!Aaai dai.
