No argument here.I've generally avoided using weighted flies for the most part over the years,I just didn't like the problems that can arise with casting them and normally opt instead for a sink tip when I want to get down......that is until I took up Spey casting last year.With my Skagit line spooled on,it's now no problem and even fun to bomb heavy flies to the far bank,and I'm rediscovering this new love for the heavyweights.
