Needed a sinking line for my new/used 8 wt., as my old 200 grain line simply would not load the rod. Decided to go with the Rio density compensated sinking head as I have never tried any rio lines.
So far I think it's great--running line is a little stiffer than similar integrated shooting head style lines from Teny, Orvis depthcharge, Airflo depthfinder etc, so it seems less prone to tangle.
I tend to fish these lines about 75% of the time since I deepwater fish a lot, so we shall see how it holds up over the season, but so far I'd reccomend it.
