Thanks Steve, this is very interesting regarding the tests they ran resulting in the more limp line was more prone to tangles than the stiff line. I find just the oposite with my other lines. The SA Wet Tip lines with a more pliable running line have very few problems with coiling and tangling. The whole problem I have with the SA Streamer Express is the running line. I can't get the small coils out of it. I don't know if I got a defective line or if this is just the way it is. I was talking with another guide and he has experienced the same problems, thus no longer uses the Streamer Express. I fired off an e-mail to SA this morning expressing my concerns about this line. It will be interesting to see what they have to say.
