I have used mostly Cortland line. My experience with other lines is limited but I will share my personal experience with Cortland. I think 333 is a very good line for the money and I use it for my wife, daughter and winter backup spools. (Ice on the line I think is quite hard on the surface of lines so I save my more expensive line for warmer weather). I like to use Cortland 444 line and I have no complaints. I tried Cortland 555 which is more expensive and I found that it wore out very fast. I went back to 444 and Double Tapper and I have not had to flip my line yet (two years old). I personally like DT line as you can flip it and it will last twice as long as weight forward line. I am not a good enough caster to tell the difference in casting quality. Just my 2 cents.
