STACKS Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 the sharkskin cut a little chanel in my reel from stripping it off, i had to use a dremel and make it smooth again. i bought two sharkskin lines , straight out off the box first time using it one of them sinks really bad.

Keith Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Just re-reading this thread.. really getting fed up with my front 3-4 feet sinking under when trying to nymph. Both my lines do it.. one Mastery Series trout taper, and the other Sharkskin trout taper.. i'm sure it must be the taper. CDock has the GPX taper and his is fine. Today I looked and the smallest pike line is an 8 weight.. are you guys just over-lining? I'd also like to know what guys are doing on this. Are you using an 8wt rod or over lining?
