In my mind, density compensated and "level sink" are mutually exclusive. But looking at cortland's level sink you're right, it is density compensated.

Note that on your level sink line, the belly sinks faster than the front taper, so with these "parabolic" lines it is even more exaggerated. The two replies above me give the two reasons I know of for choosing such a line. On the other end of the spectrum are multi density lines where to front...

Sage Graphite IIIe 15' 9wt "Greenie" with original tube and sock. It is in like new condition. I cast it once, and I doubt the person who gifted it to me ever fished it. $250 or trade. Willing to hear trade offers for anything, but most likely to pounce on another rod. PayPal or Seattle area...

The first thing you should do is get one of these flextail pumps, they take~ 3-4 minutes to inflate my Clearwater (with one on each valve). Then it just takes a few seconds of the hand pump to get it nice and firm. I like the deflate it and put it in a big plastic box, which keeps the...

Trying out some ideas. Tapered zonker + stiff trailer for added movement instead of the usual hitched trailer with power pro. Excited to see them swim, hope they aren't fouling machines. Hid a bead in there as well.

I was going to add this to my recommendations, but personally, the Vice is not my favorite when I have to put out a delicate presentation. I've used on for bonefish and super spooky redfish while I was waiting for a replacement section for my BVK and really didn't like it. I did like it when I...

Ion XL or TFO LK would be my recommendations.

Bull trout snack, smallmouth snack, cutthroat snack

I would recommend the book, "Heart of the Raincoast." It isn't about the puget sound, but not too far off.

You guys don't use them down here? The gear fishing differences between BC and the american NW are kind of fascinating.

H20 twist...

By not right do you mean it's too heavy for your 8 weight? Or does the line just not work for your casting/fishing style? I am looking to get one for my 8wt but can't choose between the 7/8 or 8/9.

H20 twist!

Targeting lings, casting it some and but fishing it vertically most of the time. Honestly don't remember what I was doing when I hooked the chinook it put me into shock.

I got a chinook in neah bay on the zippy.

I got quite a few grayling to eat streamers on a northern BC bull trout trip last year, getting them hooked is the tough part.

I second this.

You will have no problem finding snook on the beach. Walk a few feet up on the sand, they will be tucked in really close. I always have more luck around sunrise/sunset than any specific tide, but they're around all day. I prefer a 7wt, as they're really spooky. A light line like SA Bonefish is a...
