Thumbs up Pirates Lines - Seriously Impressed

I received one of Pitsford Pirates Fly Lines today and ive gotta say im seriously impressed. Dont get me wrong, ive loads of super Flylines, Airflo, Snowbee, Cortland, Flextec etc and they are all great lines, but what impressed me today was when I got my line, along with it was, a spool of backing, 2 braided loops and a tube of superglue. Everything i needed to get it onto a reel and ready for action.

And all for £17.50 inc p&p.

Its the little things that count sometimes.

Seriously impressed.

OO

I bought 3 lines a few weeks ago from the Pirate and having used the floater and Intermediate a few times, I can say they are superb lines. I had just bought a Greys floater and wasn't getting on with it, the new floater is a dream to use.
As you say, it comes with everything you need to get it attached. An absolute bargain!

Happy fishing.

Gary

Have you changed the coating Stu, to make it more supple? Thought you had mentioned this a while back.

I did Ryan, I had the factory change the coatings after they introduced new technology and raw materials from the States.

The braid is still German and UK manufactured.
