fishing for browns in lochs with a sunray ?

we all know how wild browns love them stripped on river but has anyone tried loch fishing with them ?

I may try this year as they certainly work well in flowing water....

Yup

I might have guessed......

Two of my regular fishing partners have used them on reservoirs but they will not be replacing them.
Apparently they fly like a rocket but are fragile and not nice to handle.
I wanted to try one out for wafting (I will try anything) but still awaiting a reply regarding head wts and measurements. 
Tested the new wafter with 6 different lines today - best line was a Barrio Smallstream #3. Had 5 nice rainbows too

I'm confusing you Terry.  I was talking about the 'sunray shadow' salmon fly ( plastic tube and goat hair basically ) which is generally stripped back. Trout love em on rivers so it was something I was considering trying out in 2022 on the lochs

As you say there is also Sunray rods and lines .....I was being lazy missing out the shadow bit....

Ah! James - the sunray fly! I did wonder why a line that cannot be compared to Mikes was mentioned on here
