"This line comes out of the rod like a bullet. It works well for both overt had and spey casts. The price is right and it works great, what else could you ask for?"

"Most the switch lines out there are pretty pricey, and none seem to be for the beginner switch angler. This line was very reasonable, and it casts great! I don't think I have ever casted a fly line as far as this. I actually found it fun to cast even in the wind. I highly recommend this line."

"Used this line this past week on my switch rod while steelhead fishing on Steelhead Alley in northern Ohio. My thought was to use my switch rod the first day out then switch to my 10 foot rod for the rest of the trip. I was amazed at how easy my switch rod performed with this line not only as a two handed rod but also as a single handed rod . It cast so easily that I continued to use it as a single handed rod for the rest of the trip."

"I bought the 7weight line to use on my Access Switch 7 weight 11' rod. It casts very nicely, both 2 and 1 handed. However Orvis needs to offer a sinking line option for its switch rods. To obtain this I a skagit switch shooting head from another manufacturer.."
