- This is a specialized streamer line, so it’s more purpose-built for depth-finding and turnover than for general all-around use.
- The line is offered in two density options, which means matching the right version to water depth and conditions is important.
- It is described for use in moderate and cold climates, so it may not be the most versatile choice for every environment.
