Has anyone used this line? I have a 555 Little Tunny that I like and a 444sl QD that I don't. This sounds like it might be a good line.

Great line bluefishercat! Ray recommended it to me and I've been very happy with it. I have an 8wf int. on my Tioga... Real smooth/slick, never tangles, shoots a mile. With a nice leader, turns the big bulky flies right over.

My $0.02...good luck.

I love the 555. I need to replace a 9 weight line soon and it will be the 555.

I have a 8 weight spooled up now and use it for bass on the flats.

I love my 555 also and that's why as I was trying to cast my 444sl QD last night on the lawn and it tangled again !!!! I thought "I wish they would make this line like the little Tunny 555" . Later when I was presiding on my throne and reading Fly Fish America lo and behold Cortland had the same idea! So I was wondering if anyone has yet used this new line? Is it as good as I think it would be?
