I have become very comfortable fishing a 15‘ type 6 integrated sink tip line on my 9’ 6 weight rods. I like that configuration. Shorter tips don’t do it for me. I know some swear by the 24’ tips, and I’ve never tried them, but I know the 15’ works for me. For a long time I’ve used RIO’s offering for this, but they don’t seem to sell it any more and I have not located new old stock for a 6 weight.
It seems like this 6 weight S6 sinktip line had a 150 grain head, but I can’t find specs on the old line, nor an old box. Anyone know?
This line from Cortland looks promising. https://www.cortlandline.com/products/streamer-sink-tip-15 Anyone have experience with it? I really would like to learn what grain weight the old RIO sink tip lines were, because these Cortland lines look heavy. I am not sure if I would want the 160 grain “5 weight” or 185 grain “6 weight” model.
I am open to hearing other suggestions, too, but mostly I want something pretty darn close to that configuration. Gotta be fully integrated; I don’t want any “bumps” on this setup.
