TMLhammy Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Hey, All, Just about to pull the trigger on a sink tip line and found that RIO has two different lines with a sink tip. There is an 'intouch' and a 'mainstream'. I have the 'intouch' version in all my other floating lines but was wondering about trying to get by with the 'mainstream' that is half the price. I have never skimped on line before but does anyone have an opinion or suggestion to why I shouldn't with the sink tip? I'm the type of guy that starts with a dry and only changes if I must, so was thinking for the times I'm going to be chucking and ducking - I'd live. For those who use them more often is there any reason I wouldn't want to do this? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverDoctor Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I have both My intouch is a deep 7 and like the intouch as it give me better "feel" when fishing deep for those bumps and hook-sets. It has made a difference in deeper situations and light bites. It is a bit more but for me it has been worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
