What tapers do you find work best with sinking lines and bigger lines (8 wt up)? Dickerson, Young, Winston, Powell, Garrison, Gillum or others? I'm curious. I'm about to build a heavy line weight rod and haven't decided on the taper yet. (Robert Sherrill) I've made a number of Garrison rods including his 8'6''. I do use it for sinking lines on the ponds here in Maine, I find it a little soft for my liking. (Mike Palumbo) The Gillum 8'6" is what I have fished this fall. I like it quite a bit. (Bob Maulucci) I have to second Bob on the Gillum 8'6" it is a favorite here in Oregon. (Tim Stoltz) It is one of those rods that is fair on the casting lawn, and when you roll cast and fish it, it is amazing. I really like mine a lot. (Bob Maulucci)
