Clear intermediate lines

[zabilan]

I'm using SA cold weather striper lines and don't care for the thin running line which seems to tangle too often. How are the Airflo, or the Wulff TT clear lines?

zabilan- I use the Scianglers cold water striper line and like it- find very few tangles in the running line. I also have the Airflo clear intermediate and don't like it-it feels sticky even at nite(cooler) and doesn't shoot as good as the Scianglers. I guess its just a matter of preference because I've heard alot of people complain about the Scianglers coldwater line. I also have their type 4 line and find the braided core creates alot of drag going thru the eyes; whereas the smooth running line of the coldwater line has almost no drag. Just my $.02 rel

I had the same issue with the line. After trashing it in some rocks I went to a shop that recommended the SA warm water striper line.

It still has the thin running line, but doesn't seem to tangle as much. It casts well, and does fine in cold weather as well as warm.

Good Luck.

I've had great luck with the RIO clear int. striper line. Works great casts super. Only problem is it has about a 37' head so you really need to carry alot of line outside the rod to load properly. Although you could probably over line one wt. and solve that problem.
