Thanks for the fly line help!! Do I need a separate line for saltwater fishing?

[center][font "Terminal"][black][size 3]Scuffy Fly is absolutely right on this. What species are you going for. Orvis has a good selection in saltwater lines at $69. One for Bonefish weight 6-10 at 105' with a longer front taper and a stiff braided mono core. Redfish, weight 6-10 in 105' and distance and accuracy enhanced attributes and also the stiffer core. Shorter front taper to turn over the fly. Tarpon, weights 10-13 at 105' with a short condensed front taper so it will punch. And Striper weight 8-11 at 105' and aggressive weight forward turns over heavy flies easily.[/size][/black][/font][/center]
[font "Terminal"][black][size 3]You got your work cut out for you. We have it easy here, TROUT and of course catfish and carp and some bass sunfish and tiger muskey, all of which a 6 wt would be all you need. We shoot for the 1 to 5 weights for the fun of it.[/size][/black][/font]
