In taper? Or are you saying that you think Orvis has SA make it and brand it in an Orvis box?I'm using orvis bankshot, I belive it to be almost identical to the SA Bass line.

The Andadro line will most likely work well for you.Perfect timing on this thread. Anyone try the SA Anadro? Was going to use it on a 6wt for smallmouth on the Snake.
So, I have a number of wulff ambush lines around. What do those give up vs the SA/Orvis or Cortland lines when using them for bass?I like the Cortland Bass line - the orange and white one. Also, for some tight quarter spots I like the Wulff Ambush
Yes, I have a few of them. Not the best for bigger stuff (big poppers or heavy sub-surface bass flies), but casts nice and mends really well. Probably a fine choice if you're using for smaller streamers and are also wanting to use it as a nymphing line.Perfect timing on this thread. Anyone try the SA Anadro?

I’m running the same thing just 8wt lines on 8wts, think these lines are some of the best for bass. I also like a titan tropical clear tip too for smaller flies and when I need a little more stealth (or a TT predator tip)I’ve been using SA Bass Bug on my 7wt and it is absolutely awesome for turning over big flies. Super slick and doesn’t have issues getting sticky from pond scum or hot temps. I really like the SA Sonar Titan Full Intermediate for fishing Gamechangers and craws as well.
Also I have fished a buddies imx pro 7 and really liked that rod with a 7wt bass bug. Could also go with a titan long if you were thinking to use it for streamers in cooler temps but for bass fishing that bass bug line is too good
Ha - perfect. I was just about to ask if anyone was using that line on a BAG, or if they could provide a grain weight for the 7 or 8wt lines. My 8wt Quickshot loves the 300gr Tropical Punch, but the Tropical Punch does not love our cold Western WA lakes.Just ordered an SA Bass Bug. We'll see how it does on my Echo BAG when it gets here.
I will do my best. But I'm not the most graceful or skilled caster! Will be the 7wt line on a 7wt BAG.Ha - perfect.

Could you put up a review after you try it?
Fished an 8wt titan long on an 8wt BAG quickshot and liked that setup, I’d bet the bass bug will be similar and you’ll like it. Real pleasant fishing setup and big fan of that for topwaters. But interested to hear what your opinion is.Just ordered an SA Bass Bug. We'll see how it does on my Echo BAG when it gets here.
on my 7wt BAG, I really like shooting heads in the 235-250 range FWIW for bass stuff.I will do my best. But I'm not the most graceful or skilled caster! Will be the 7wt line on a 7wt BAG.
That's exactly what I'm using now. It's fine, but always looking for better!Fished an 8wt titan long on an 8wt BAG quickshot and liked that setup, I’d bet the bass bug will be similar and you’ll like it.
