Lines I've used

[deecaster777]

I have used a number of lines for a number of reasons. For winter I have used Skagit lines. I have used Airflo lines for this, as they cast heavier sink tips. I have noticed something though, Salmon and steelhead will stay close to the river bank when they don't feel threatened. So at times I have even seen a need for a floating line or an intermediate floating tip to present a fly to these fish. I have watched people fish like crazy in deep water to no avail yet only 50 yards away a fish could be tailing in the shallows. The Skagit head is versatile here as you can use both floating tips and sinking tips. This allows you to work to these fish. Once the water is a bit warmer I switch to floating heads. I have used the Rio afs shooting head for tis for some time. It could be my casting style but this head has served me well in the past. I tried airflos scandi head but it just didn't seem to fit the bill. That could be due to the rod I use or my casting style. I have recently been testing the airflow rage and really like this line. It casts well and you can use down to a type three sink tip on it.
For mid belly lines I have cast Beulah elixir line. This line is impressive it mends well in the air and on the water ,which cant really be done with Skagit line ( they really can only be steered on the water ) The other line in the mid belly I've used is the next cast fall favorite this line is very impressive capable of doing casts that can't be done with other lines. This line is for advance to intermediate casters. It handles sink tips to type 6. Presentation of the fly is the most important part here. What lines have you used and what way do you like to present flies to fish.
