Re: Question on Line Weight

I agree with those above: start out with a WF line an the heavier of the two indicated line weights.

I consider the Cortland 333 lines the starting point for what I call "decent" fly lines. $30+ may seem pricey for "fishin strang", but having a quality line really is quite important. Other brands worth considering are Airflo, Scientific Anglers, Rio, and Orvis.
