I fish 30’-40’ wide upper reaches of PNW Coastal Rivers for Sea Run (Coastal) Cutthroat. But IMHO salmon are pretty ugly by the time they get there and deserve to spawn unmolested. The Cutts are there to gorge on eggs and possibly flesh. They make for good sport. I can “two hand” cast a weighted fly about 25 ft with a level line the length of my 5.3 m Keiryu rod. A fixed line hasn’t worked well for me from salt beaches where Chum, Jack Chinook, Rezzie Coho, and Cutt hookups generally occur beyond 30’. Carrying a longer line in the air than my 5 meter rod in PNW coastal rivers invites catching a lot of trees, and hasn’t worked very well for me and my skills. My thoughts on longer lines are in this “tapered line” thread. > [@Level FC Line To Tippet Transition Sections Provide Superior Casting Performance](https://10colorstenkara.com/t/level-fc-line-to-tippet-transition-sections-provide-superior-casting-performance/2009/27): > > I preface my comments with admitting I’m not an expert at this at all. As others have mentioned I get good turnover with a level line the length of the rod or a bit longer and don’t need longer lines in most waters I fish. And I find line and fish management with longer Tenkara lines are more difficult than using a fly rod and reel, which are the better tools for me in those situations. My reasons for using a tapered Tenkara line are increased visibility while maintaining (or increasing) steal… --- _[View the full topic](https://10colorstenkara.com/t/wtb-gamakatsu-multiflex-5-0/2470)._
