{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Cheap Full sinking fly line

JP, wish I could help you out on this but as far as I know there aren't many options out there for cheap full-sinking lines. But Dan put it nicely when speaking to one of our members at TieFest earlier this year, a full-sink line at $70-100 is about the same price as gas for one or two trout fishing trips and will keep you shad fishing for several years. You may be able to find a discontinued or close out line on the internet for cheaper but I am weary of this after spending $20 or so on a discontinued full-sinking line a few years back and having the line break multiple times on fish and snags with 0X tippet.

And yeah, your 6wt will be solid out there for shad, aim for a 200ish grain shooting head or 6wt labeled sinking line.
