Further to my earlier post in the tackle section I've now bought one of these rods for my small river work. Has anyone cast one with a WF5 line? I've a WF5F Cortland line knocking about and it seems a shame to buy a new line if this will be suitable.

I've fished it on lochs with a WF5F and a WF5i and it seemed just fine
