3/16 rigid vs semi for laterals

[Maplewalnut]

Those of you that have 3/16ths set ups what are you using for laterals? I tend to like 5/16ths semirigid for both drops and laterals because it seems to have better stretch and I like my lines tight and fittings staying put. Do you get alot of sags with 3/16? Is rigid tubing for laterals a must? Fittings pulling off?

Thanks

On the recommendation of another member here I bought a couple of rolls of H2O innovations 3/16 tubing. The h2o tubing is definitely softer and stretchier. The guys that recommended it (Cody and his dad, Todd) have tried leader, CDL, and h2o. I had to buy about 3 miles of 3/16, so I bought mostly leader 30p because it's about 60% the price. The h2o, however is a better product. It's more transparent, which makes diagnosing problems easier. It seems to grip the fittings better, which is why Todd and Cody prefer it, and it seemed immune to squirrel damage. Maybe that was completely a coincidence, but I didn't have a single squirrel chew on the h20, but had to fix chews on the 30p daily.

Oh, and it's a very pretty green color, which is nice. :)

Is that H2O tube rigid or semi?

I don't know what they call it, but it's not rigid.

CDL is semi and available in green and blue and $ 56.75 for 1,000' rolls.
