New fly line

[davew]

I'm looking for a new weight forward floating line for my 9' 5 weight trout rod. I mostly use the rod for fishing larger dry flies (#10-14) and indicator or tight line nymphing in rivers. What do you recommend? Thanks!

I've always just gone with an SA Mastery Trout on my 9' 5wt for general use. There may be additional lines out there now, but that's something that's not broke, so I see no sense in trying to fix it. If tight-line nymphing, throw on a longer leader or use a purpose built rod for such things as there are far better tools for tight-line/contact/euro nymphing than a 9' 5wt.
