Every spring and summer I do some stillwater fishing for large mouth bass. After the spawn, the bass move deep and it's hard to get down to the fish with a floating line and a weaighted fly. I've tried a sink tip, but it hinges where the tip and flaoting line meet. I was thinking about buying a sinking line and Orvis has them on sale. The question is what sink rate? The specs for the three lines available are below. Any advice is appreciated, thanks guys!
•WF class II (fly line weights 3-8), medium green.
Class II Sink Rate: 1¾" to 2¾"/second
•WF class III (fly line weights 6-9), dark green.
Class III Sink Rate: 3½" to 4½"/second
•WF class V (fly line weights 7-12), dark gray.
Class V Sink Rate: 5½" to 6½"/second
•WF class II (fly line weights 3-8), medium green.
Class II Sink Rate: 1¾" to 2¾"/second
•WF class III (fly line weights 6-9), dark green.
Class III Sink Rate: 3½" to 4½"/second
•WF class V (fly line weights 7-12), dark gray.
Class V Sink Rate: 5½" to 6½"/second
