You will notice that both the 444 wf and dt lines are true 6 weights (160 grains by AFTMA standards).

Yupe,

And my grain scale agrees.

Amazing how some companies feel free to lie to the customers.

Cortland is the bulk of my lines - I have DT444's in 2>8 wt. dry lines. The sinkers are all over the place. Cortland mostly.

And Brushrat, the tackle shops sell what the customer has been sold on. Buy a WF and get 2/3's the life of the DT. Now I just gotta wonder who benefits from that story.

Follow the money. Can't miss.
