Are you talking spooling an entire fly reel with regular fishing line, be it mono. fluorocarbon, etc.?
If so, I took a reel that I really had no use for and put backing then about 100' of fluoro. It won't cast worth a dang, but where I deep nymph at 20 to 30 feet is sure makes it easy. I mark the depth and then I can reset the indicator every time.
Seems logical to me, and it is still fly fishing anyway you look at it.
I don't know why amnesia is more acceptable than equal weight mono.
Like I said I am still trying to figure out what is so great about it. It is BRIGHT if nothing else.
I have some and still trying to figure out what to do with it.
I made a butt section out of it for my hubby and I made the same poundage one out of Frog Hair for me....he even like the Frog Hair better.
I think it is a fad and one I just can't wrap my hackles around[laugh][laugh]
