Every year I ignore some good fishing for the Sea Trout my club has to offer.As I'm usually pretty well Salar orientated, any I do get are usually a by catch, but very welcome.
I've fished else where for the Silver Prince with some success, but its been on easier venue's with more fish and more open banksides where overheading with my best reservoir method of casting is perfectly adequate.Ribble is a tadge trickier!.
From the off, not a good over header.I have tried my lighter switch rods, but my Spey casting go's tit's up once its fully dark.
So what I'm wondering is, can you recommend a line for night time fishing that will help me as much as its possible to, I'd like a floater with maybe short polys- don't really need the heavy sinkers!.My rods a Sage SP in 10ft rated 7 weight.
To date I've used 7 weight Cortland 444's in float and intermediate and the Multi tip option too- however that has 1st generation loops which are primarily Shrink tubing, super glue and braid and are as clumpy as clogs on a ballet dancer.Would an 8 weight be preferable? or one of the new generation of single handed Spey Lines.
I've a Greys Platinum thing on currently and in my eye's its a stillwater line, it proved interesting come pitch black time!
So my ears are open, my wallets putting up a struggle, but I'll catch it 1/2 asleep and splash the cash if needed.Any idea's all?
