Seasoned 3/16 guys, staying with 5/16 spouts or going to 3/16

[antghunter]

Guys,
Just wondering what all the seasoned 3/16 tubing installers are doing as far as moving over to 3/16 spouts from the 5/16 spouts we had to use last year because of the lack of the availability of the 3/16 spouts. I am going onto my second year using the 3/16 lines and plan on running some new lines. I was using the 5/16 clear leader check spouts last year, had good success. I see that d&g and CDl is now offer the 3/16 spouts. So I guess I'm looking some ideas on what guys think or are doing, positives and negatives. Thanks

I just changed my drops and stayed 5/16. I don't think the new 3/16 spouts come in clear. I like clear because it is easy to see if there is a leak at the tap hole.

I was trying to wait for some replys but didn't get any, so I also decided today to stay with the 5/16 clear check spouts because of that same reason, need to see those leaks.

I am running 5/16 Leader clear seasonal and second year will likely go to clear check valves. Appears CDL may be coming out with a T where the top of the T barb is for a 5/16" line due to so many asking for it.
