Pros: Like the line when its not raining. Turns over big flies well and is smooth. Agree it is a little wimpy and limp when its warm outside. But that has not been a real problem. |

Cons: Well, obviously it's an expensive line. I was an early adopter and there are a few other real pricey lines now, but generally I think you get what you pay for. New technology.
My biggest negative is the texture, which is what makes this line unique. It makes kind of a zinging noise through the guides, particularly when you are bearing down on a nice fish. I spent a week in Alaska in Sept. 08 and it rained hard every day. After the first day, the two fingers on my right hand that hold the line when I strip were raw and bleeding. So if you are going to use this line in the rain, I'd recommend some kind of wrap on your stripping fingers. |

Other Thoughts: RiverBum service is the gold standard. |
