Default 7-10 foot midge tip - does it exist?

I'm looking for a new midge tip line with a 7-10ft sinking tip section - does such a line exist??

I've got a Rio 3ft/1metre and both the cortland ghost tips in 5ft and 15ft and would like something to fill the gap inbetween. I suppose I could always stick on a 5ft polyleader to the 3 or 5ft line but I'm not a big fan of them.

Anyone suggestions??

I have a Scientific Anglers 10ft sink tip, and to be perfectly honest even though i've always preferred Cortland lines, i bought the SA thinking "oh well i'll give it a try might do the odd day out", but i can't fault it, better than i had ever imagined it would be, it's a joy to use, and i use it often.

Best regards
Jim
