Price Paid:  $32.00 at KKK Flyfishers

Body of Water:
Gulf Coast

Summary:
I feel this is an outstanding value for those that are just starting to flyfish, and those of us that need a flyline that will allow you to pick-up and shoot without having to do a lot of false casting.

Strengths:
This line loads the rod well without false casting. This is very handy when fishing out of Kayaks and float tubes.

Weaknesses:
None so far!

Customer Service:
I've not had to deal with them. That alone speaks for the quality of the product.

Reviewed by: Anonymous User ,  20 days a year , from Chapel Hill, NC

Summary:
I like this line. I have a 4wt 7.5' and this line allows me to make quick accurate casts with ease. Saw somewhere that this lines limitation is that it makes "sloppy" presentations, I fish mostly for panfish and bass, and is not a problem. I have considered adding a DT to my gear for trout, though.. I gave it a great rating, but since I'm a beginner maybe that's a sign that SA did their homework.. If I could afford them, I would buy more SA AST lines...

Strengths:
Super slick.. Sails through guides

Weaknesses:
Only had for 6 mons, but have been pleased with this line

This is my "best" line,Also have a couple Cortland fairplay's in varios weights.

Strengths:
Bright yellow is easy to see. WF floating line allows the novice to cast far. It shoots line really well.

Weaknesses:
None
