hey guys,
So I bought a sage fli 5 weight early this year and had my old cortland 444 wf 5 f, wf 5 type 1 sink and 444 type 6 sink. So far I have only used the intermed and the floating.
Now, I also have the fli 8 weight with rio v tip. This rod loads up rad and I can really bust casts out there. Not to mention it feels really good.
In comparison, I don't feel like I'm loading my fast action rod up enough with the cortland 5 weight lines. I've been working on my cast and as of last week I was probably getting approx 30+/-5 feet out. However, I was REALLY working hard.
So my question. Has anyone found a better combination? Or are my expectations unrealistic?
I'm looking to get a new sink tip. suggestions?
