I had received a new shooting head line for my 12-13 weight two-handed rod.
It is a type 2 line and designed specifically for this rod. So both the rod and line match well.
I can throw a fly over 50 yards.
The description of this line in the catalog says it can be thrown over 70 yards.

Provably it means for expert fly casters.
I wish I could throw a fly that far when my casting gets better.
I used my new stripping basket, which I modified from a dishpan, this weekend first time.
Surprisingly it works very well.
A well designed stripping basket can make such a big difference.
I've used a LL Bean one since the beginning and line tangling occurs often.
Now with this new stripping basket I can say that the problem of tangling shooting line has nearly gone. Bingo!!
