All the airflo six sense lines are good. The slow and the fast glass are first class lines, in fact I would say the fast glass is my favourite wet fly line. Just remember there is very little stretch in them, so if you use a very fast actioned rod and hit your fish hard you might find your cast breaking. Great thing about these lines is you will feel every slight little touch on the line.
Buy one, you will not be disappointed.

I am pleased with the performance of my slow glass and fast glass sixth sense lines, bought as a pair at a discount from Sportfish. Some sensible observations and advice above.

About the only other thing I would say is that these lines illustrate how misleading the term "intermediate" is. Being quite old school, the sink speed of my slow glass reminds me of the old Wet Cel 1, which back in the day was the classic reference slow sinker, and the fast glass is reminiscent of a Wet Cel 2 medium sinker ! If you are looking for a very, very slow sink speed indeed, perhaps look at other lines.

Hi Montymajor, Iv'e used the fast-glass and the mid-glass. IMO the mid-glass gives better control during it's descent, with total control through the first three feet, from the surface.

Both cast like a dream, even into the wind and getting most of the line on the water is no problem. As has been mentioned, these are ultra low stretch, so don't fish too light, or you' end up leader less, at some point.

Enjoy.

Best Regards

Stuart
