Summary: After three fishing days line become dirty on green moss. It isn´t what manufacturer said. No way to clean it.
It´s easy to cast, but I feel too heavy the WF tip, and frecuently it bumps on water o r during backcast.
Strengths: It was preety when clean.
Weaknesses: Easy to catch water debris. Impossible to clean. It doesn´t float high.Three first feet sink like intermediate line.
Customer Service: I prefere not to buy another Orvis line again.

Body of Water: Eastern U.S.
Summary: The outer coating started to come off after about 5 days of fishing. The line got all gummy and lost it's slickness
Strengths: Orvis will replace all there product no questions asked.
Weaknesses: Orvis will replace all there products no questions asked. Orvis should concentrate on producing top quality products that don't need to be returned. Returns are a hassle. Nothing is for free. The sell 2nd rate lines that you can return.
Customer Service: Great, but again i have lines from other producer that have lasted years and are still fishing well.

Summary: I had the WF-5-F Trout Wonderline for 3 weeks before it started to crack every few feet. I loved this line before this started to happen but for a $60 fly line I find this unacceptable.
Strengths: Shoots well and the coating reduces the frequency of line cleanings.
Weaknesses: Mine lasted less than one month.
Customer Service: They've been good in the past. They replaced a pair of waders that had some pinhole leaks without question. I called them on the phone and they said to take it back to the fly shop that I bought it at
