{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Recommended lines for Orvis Access 6wt?

See if you can find out how many grains its rated for and go by that instead of having to guess off generic line WT's, which often vary by brand.

I have an Orvis Access 6 wt  fast tip flex I purchased a few years ago and I have a love/hate relationship with the rod. It fun to cast with a skagit head, but the Clearwater 6 wt fly line I have on it feels like casting a broom. I've toyed around with an old 7/8 wt line I have around and that's a little better.

In an ideal world, this would be my bass and streamer rod for trout, but I frankly don't enjoy fishing it without the skagit head at this point.

I'm not sure if anyone has experience with the Access rods (they don't seem that fondly remembered on the interwebs) but if there's a good line pairing or recommendation for consistency I'd love to try and get some life out of it.
