Double Taper
on a 3/4 weight fly fishing rod, what size fly line should I use?
I have a 9 foot fly rod, with a 3/4 rating on it. I once heard that you would use a 3 weight Double Taper line on it, OR a 4 weight Weight Forward line. Is this true? or does it really not matter?
I should add- it’s being used for trout fishing in a medium sized creek in western pennsylvania
either/or.
3 or 4 weight, double taper OR weight forward.
the double taper may be a plus with delicate presentations and of course, you have two ends to work with.
but… modern, quality fly lines will give you years of good service without having to resort to turning your line around so l personally would go with the weight forward to handle a little larger range of fly sizes.
in the 4wt.
but again, that is just my own personal opinion of which you will probably get many.
