Help with Fly Line?

Postby flybob » August 21st, 2008, 1:09 pm

Anybody have any experience with Sage Quiet Double Taper II? 1wt, do they make smaller?

And what makes it "Quiet"

Thanks,
Bob

By the way, people, SierraTradingPost still has it in 0 and 00 for $20. In case anyone still wants some.
How do you tie the fly to your hooks without killing them with the thread? I keep cutting them in half.

Thanks for specifying that you were in fact talking to people :lol:

I sold my 1 wt. superfine and had a new spool of it as a backup, but the guy who bought the rod low-balled me and I didn't give it to him out of spite. If you want it it's yours as I will never have a use for it and plan on going to the 00 wt. Yeah, I jumped on the bandwagon and will lose 1 Orvis for my 2nd Sage.
