What line are people running with the Sage X 596-4?

Just looking for some line and grain weight examples to point me in the right direction.

Thanks,

I liked SA MPX on mine for most freshwater applications

It depends on the type of fishing you do.
Gotta know that first.

I fish still water and my Sage X 596-4 is usually lined with Cortland type 3 Level Sink for this time of the year. For floating line Rio Gold is good. These aren’t the only lines that will match the Sage X 596-4

This matters many multitudes more than what rod it is. Match the type of line to your fishing. Match the size to the rod.

I am looking for general grain window experience with rod. The reason is because I heard the X 596-4 does well with 6wt lines.

The first line I am looking for is for beaching fishing the sound.

I bet something in the 200-210g range would work well in that rod.
