RIO Skagit Spey Fly Line
NEW!
The Skagit Spey is a revolutionary new line designed for
the Skagit-style spey cast. This casting technique requires
a line with a very short, 27 ft (8.3m), heavy head that
will propel heavy sink tips and big flies great distances
with a very short casting stroke. Skagit casting is easy
for novice or experienced casters to learn. For casting
the Skagit Spey, the total head length and weight must
be matched to the rod. The total head length including
the sink tip should be no more than 3 - 3.5 times the
length of the rod. To adjust for rod length and loading,
simply add a 5 ft or 10 ft Skagit
Cheater™ to achieve the desired load and length.
The RIO 15 ft sinking tips or T14 may be used to achieve
the desired depth. The Skagit Spey features RIO's welded
loop for fast tip changes and is also available as a full
floating line with a 44 ft (13.4m) head to cast bombers
and weighted flies for summer steelhead. the head is green
with a yellow running line for optimum casting controls.
