Have you ever cleaned it? Most fly line "dressings" are pretty much fly line "floatants". Other than that, just make sure if you wash it you get all the soap off it, and if all else fails get a bandana, fill it with soft mud at the lake, and drag the line through it just as you would a floating line through a rag coated with "dressing". That should help. I have an intermediate I treated with fly floatant one day when the adult midge action was killer and I had forgotten my floater. It's been 5 trips and the line still hasn't recovered. It's getting better, but it still resists surface tension a little...

It is a Cortland type II uniform sink, supposedly a pretty good line, but it doesn't sink very well.....it won't break through the surface tension. Anyone else ever havee this problem? Any remedies? > > Thanks, Ross
