Re: Bamboo and Silk Lines?
Back in my bamboo days I had a quality silk line I got on a reel in an estate sale. It was new and appeared to be just like the Phoenix lines. It was supple easily dressed with red tin mucilin. It was on my small stream rod and was a double taper line of about 100' as I recall. I took the line and cut it in half. I would fish one half in the AM and the other in the PM with the wet line left to dry in camp and then retreated with mucilin before fishing again. It was still work and I finally sold the two halves on eBay along with the rod and went back to fishing my old glass rods and air cel lines. I was more into the fishing than the tool. I think everyone ought to at least try a quality grass rod and silk line. I just wanted something simple with effortless maintenance. I guess that is why I am so happy with my TenkaraUSA Ayu rod.
