Default Intermediate Line Blue or Green?

Im considering buying a new intermediate line, im currently fishing with the airflo slow glass. Its been a good, quality line.

I dont know wether to play safe and get the airflo again or my mate fishes the Cortland 444 Blue intermediate and praises it!

Any suggestions on which line or even if you recomend another?

Cheers J

Hi Johnny,I am also a fan of the Cortland Blue Intrm. Definately catch more fish than my boat partner with it,especially on,"the hang" at the end of a retrieve.For small lures its a must have line IMO.

Colour doesn't matter.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

What is your boat partner using may I ask?

I have never liked cortland;found they die very quickly. And since they've been taken over by walker £45-50 is ridiculous for a line that probably won't last very long. Although having said that they are popular. I'd stick to the airflos scientific anglers and pirates.
