No doubt about it..for less than that you can get superb floating lines from either Pitsford Pirate or Barrio, both on this Forum.

In the budget range you just will not do better, in fact I think you won't do better full stop.

Agreed. Pitsford Pirate's lines are superb lines at great value prices. You won't go far wrong.

Cheers
Gary.

It's a Barrio line for me. Superb quality and just the right ammount of suppleness. Can't fault 'em.

Default Barrio Outcast

I see the Barrio Outcast was first and second in the BFCC five weight comp at Newark on Saturday and only lost out in the Seven weight.

Another Pitsford Pirate fan - stopped buying expensive fly lines, in preference to his. Cheaper AND better.

Pitsford V Barrio = Man Utd V Chelsea = Barcelona V Real = Rangers V Celtic = Ferrari V McLaren = Federer V Nadal. I've had some really nice lines (usually expensive) but my next lines will be definately be coming from these two forum sources

EDIT, INSERT : Sparta V Slavia

I've just tried one Barrio line but it's faultless so far. Superb!
