Hi Texfly,

This is one of those questions that you are never going to get agreement on. If you get thirty responses, there will be at least twenty differing opinions. So let me add my opinion and bring the total to 21 different points of views. I use WF on everything except my #1 weight rod because DT line came with that outfit and I'm a little afraid of stressing such a light system. Everything else I own from a #2 weight, all the way up to a pair on #9 weights is lined with WF line. If I find that I will need a more delicate cast, I adjust the cast itself. I decrease the power of the cast that I use, make sure that the line straightens out in the air before it drops on the water, and try to shorten the casting distance by carefully wading, bank creeping and general stealth (as much as an old, fat guy can muster). I don't think that your ultimate choice of WF or DT will make all that much difference in your fishing success. I hope this helps---good luck! 8T
