I may be incorrect, but the info I have indicates that Airflo was using a braided core last year as well in the saltwater floating lines. It is hard to tell from the specs but for 2006 they may be applying a somewhat stiffer outer coating to the new lines to avoid the summer "stickies" that the lines developed when stripped onto sunny boat decks. Great lines in the water, however. Their lines are urethane rather than PVC.

Can't wait for the sale on the 40+ lines! Any 6 wt floaters?

I also love the SA floaters for their mending capability, but if stranded with one line on an island I would have to go with the 40+ intermediate. The first few times I tried the line I set it aside myself, but I have learned to like the integrated shooting head feel for all around fishing.

FishHawk...you are in with a dangerous crowd here...especially that Steelhead fellow!
