{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Switch Line

Doubtful - I've been using a day-glo orange line on my 5wt single hander for a few years now with no trouble.

I will note though, that on my 6wt switch rod, I found the Hydros 3D switch line to be on par with a 9wt or so overhand line. It didn't really let me fully experience TH casting like I was able to when I switched to a Skagit head. FWIW, I cut the head off the Hydros line and looped the end of the running line and the end of the Hydros line. That lets me switch heads without having to buy a new running line. I now use the switch head when OH casting the rod while high-sticking nymphs for trout, in the surf, or from a kayak, all places where the extra length is particularly useful but the water anchor isn't particularly so.

Hey - I will have 5wt switch rod soon. I am planning to purchase a switch line. I have checked Rio switch line and Orvis Hydros 3D switch and Access switch line. The users put 4.5/5 stars on them. However the colors is still bothering me. Will the color bold red spook any trout? Have you try any one of these switch lines or different brands? 

Thanks

Richard
