One fly line I use from time to time is a Cortland 444 in a DT6 that I bought back in the 1974-1976 time frame. It sinks on both ends.... I'm on my "last end" after reversing the fly line years ago. I bought it originally to use on a 6 wt fiberglass Fenwick I had built.
I have some of the "new fangled" lines I use on my more modern outfits. Some of them are built by someone else named Sage.
