    Joe, sounds like you’re looking for a decent inexpensive fly line.  I don’t know if you have tried Barrio Fly Lines out of Aberdeenshire, Scotland, but I’ve really enjoyed the lines so far.  

    Practicing for the CCI Exam wore out some fly line, and I needed an inexpensive, easily visible (BRIGHT ORANGE) fly line that I could roll cast, carry, and cast accurately.  The Barrio GT140s suited me just fine for the exam at $32.

    You might check out the GT90 or SLX, depending on your situation.  RIO and SA both make fantastic lines, and it’s worth spending the money.  If kept clean, an expensive line will pay itself back in satisfaction and longevity.  

    However, I understand pinching pennies too.  Well, can’t seem to get the link posted, but you can google Barrio Fly Line.

    Thanks,

    Chris
