Default snowbee

I recently had the pleasure of using a Snowbee line. It was a dream.

I use the 444 SL's in the offshore/rocket taper and I am quite happy with them. They're are not as trendy as other lines but the price is right and the function is just fine.

You may want to go up a few line weights from the label though. I have a 9wt crosscurrent and I need to use and 12wt to get it singing.

The Rio Outbounds are very good too although the running line is a little thin. I'd try the 10wt or 11wt outbound with that rod. The heads are actually 420 and 465 grains respectively. The equivalent of about a 13/14 weight.

Hope this helps.
