To punch a line into the wind for permit, I've found the Teeny Bruce Chard line to be great (www.jimteeny.com). It lands a bit hard, but gets to those fish upwind that you wouldn't normally reach and turns the leader over well, even with a heavier crab fly. They also make a tarpon line that I haven't tried yet. For spey casting, the hot line around the Seattle area is the Skagit Cheater by Rio. Short head so you have to strip more line in for the cast, but shoots like a sniper rifle...

I'm talking about lines designed for a specific purpose, like nymphing stillwater or saltwater fishing etc. What are you using and why do you like it?
