Air Flo- Cold Salt Water

[falkners]

It is possible if you are using a one handed strip retrieve you are inducing some kind of twisting to the line in the basket. Particularly if the first couple of dozen casts seem ok. Try a two handed retrieve with the reel tucked under your armpit and see if it eliminates the twisting. One bad habit I have is leaving my strung up rods in the car which gets quite warm during the day. The older Airflos I use tend to get "tacky" and stick together. this I consider to be my fault not he line's.

bucko, in scituate do you fish that jetti at the lighthouse? I need to get over there again I did pretty good there when I Lived in Weymouth..

but I know the line is great just can't figure it out,, I do retrieve 2 handed 95% of the time in saltwater, with the reel under my arm but who knows I'm not really doing that little wrist twist thing that lefty says to do after your final haul so maybe the fly is spinning in the air. I do like airflo lines it was the line I started with and caught my first keeper on.

I am self taught and I do have bad days sometimes, I will never accuse the equipment unless it litterly failed,, I usually go into investigation mode and unless I find stacked bad reviews I try to find the solution to the problem.

bucko, let me know when you'll be down there again if you don't mind I'll join ya! I'll even bring the airflo, or fish the point at plymouth beach I have a sticker to drive pretty much the entire way with maybe a 3/8 mile hike-n-fish walk to the point where the boulders are near the channel,,, with the sun out this is flats type sight fishing for a ways before it drops.

Never had any issue with Airflo lines. I really like the 40+. I've had much more issue with my Rio lines tangling on me.
