    A bright pink one!!! Then you and Grant can fish together, him in spandex, and you with your pink line!!!

    The 444 SL series is hard to beat .... I've never fished a slicker line in my life and there are a very wide variety of versions available.

    Check out this link:http://www.cortlandline.com/catalog/444SL-lines.html for the SL series

    or check out this link for the full range:http://www.cortlandline.com/catalog/toc.php

    Thanks Eben,

    Maybe we should have a field session on Sunday morning ? I would be interested to see if it loads my 9wt rod properly ?

    I have a old Cortland saltwater series triangular taper line. It has endured a good 3 seasons of saltwater abuse and although it needs a good clean, having lost a lot of it's original slickness, the line still looks good. I can also highly recommend these lines

    I agree with ebf- the Jim Teeny is insane. Best line I have ever had.

    But your reasoning has a fatal flaw; it overlooks the fact that to comprehend it requires that one rub a few brain cells against each other. The heat thus generated produces the light that illuminates the fact, but alas, not everybody has the resource required to fuel the process --SG
