what just is interesting, ive had the one aquanova line on my reel for a couple of months now, its a smallish 4/5wt reel, not large arbour. I havent cast that line for about 4 months and a while back i took it out, no line memory whatsoever, cast like it did when i loaded it, straight with no ripples. So i must admit, i was really impressed! Maybe the memory will come later on, but i still stick with my argument.
