Howdy all. I have a Scott ARC 1510-4 and have a line dilema. I've used Launcher lines (Cortland big game 12 wt, cut and looped for tips ala Fly Fishing Shop), and a Windcutter 10/11 on it. Both work but are nothing to shout about. The Launcher is starting to crack, and a client who's owed me bucks for three years sent me some new-in-box lines as a peace offering. The lines are a 10/11 accelerator and a 10/11 Midspey, both in multi-tips. When I mentioned this to SpeyBum at the Spey tying roundtable this week I got the reaction I used to give folks who wanted to run indicators and split shot on 2 weights.
So... Sell the lines on E-Bay and get what I can? Fish them? Can't help but notice Simon Gawesworth says 8/9 midspey works great on the rod... If so the 10/11 lines don't sound like the makings of a great time! When time allows I'm going to take advantage of the wonderful resources River Run Anglers is and try lots of lines, but any help narrowing down the now daunting list of lines would be appreciated. I got my first spey rod in '97. It was easier then to pick a line :hehe:
