I switched from SA Ultra 3 to the Wulff Triangle Taper on my Thomas & Thomas Horizon 8-1/2 ft 5-wt this past year (yep, that's a TT on my T&T ). The difference was like night and day - outstanding performance. Highly recommend the Triangle Taper for any Washington waters. The 2001 version of the Triangle Tapers revised the nomenclature regarding weights - I'm using last years 5/6 whereas this years version of that same line is simply listed as 5wt.
