You can get the best of both worlds with a long rear taper like Airflo's River and Stream and Cortland Omni-verse. A long rear taper allows mending both in air and on the water where the running line on WF lines cause a disconnect. A long rear taper is much nicer for roll casting.

Short rear tapers and extreme torpedo heads are awesome for loading a fast rod in close, especially if you are a novice caster. These lines are over weight and suck the life out of your rod. SA GMX, Rio Grand and even Gold are weight forward and heavy. Good lines for a beginner but extremely limiting as one progresses into more precise casting.
