I have been very impressed by the #6 I have. How did you load it onto the reel?

Ta, Lee.

I have one in a six weight as well and havent had any problems with it but it seems to be thicker than other lines of the same weight that Ive used before.

yeah sounds like you may have took the line of the reel from the side rather than it coming of the spool in a straight manner as allowing it to come of the side causes twist in the line ( i can vouch for that)

I have a WF7F and it casts beautifully.

But for goodness sake put your line on a large arbour reel. Even my Snowbee XS lines coil and kink on an unsuitable reel.

Ron are you making excuses?
I had intended to buy one to try, but neither this thread or your holy grail thread has given me much confidence in this line.
