Line For Z-axis 8100-4

[126barnes]

Looking for a bit on info on flyline for my new Z-Axis 8100 (Single Hander not sure if there is Switch 8100)

 

First of all the Z-Axis is a lot more rod than I'm use to, currently own several Launch models including a 890-4. The Z-axis although manageable (444 8WF) for my casting style will take some getting use too.

 

Local Choice is down to 444, Performace Taper II, Wluff TT, Air Cel, maybe a GPX.

 

I'm wondering about the Performance Taper II, Sage puts it off as the line of choice for it premium rods (of couse they do). Is this line rated heavier than its normal designation like the Rio Grand (+1/2 wt) or are they true to their rating.

 

 

Any suggestions?

Sage lines are made by Rio and I don't really like them. I picked one up for my 390XP out of the bargain bin and it just doesn't shoot as nicely as a lot of the other lines.

 

I'm tellin ya - Airflo Freshwater Tactical. Only way to fly.
