have an 8wt, 9'- using a 9wt forward,
intermediate line. someone suggested i go up to a 10wt line. still a newbie and don't have my double haul timing
(read line speed) down pat but the
9wt line casts a helluva lot better than the 8wt line that i originally bought wth the rod. the person who suggested the 10wt thought it would improve my casting. only real way to tell is to put it on my rod and test it out. any thoughts and or suggestions?
One guy at Urban Angler suggested only one size up. I never heard of going two sizes up. The manufact. may be able to help you on that one. Give them a buzz. Flylines are costly and it would suck to buy a future paperweight.
