More Great Information on Flies Salmon Steelhead:
Using a Spey rod for big water and big fish by drbob
The “Spey” or two-handed fly rod has become the tool of preference for steelhead and salmon fishermen looking to swing flies on big rivers. Two-handed rods take the drudgery out of swinging flies by minimizing casting effort, maximizing swing time, and permitting outstanding mending and line control. Two additional added benefits: 1) they can chuck BIG flies and submerge tips; 2) they can chuck long casts. Very best of all, Spey rods are fun. But with all the rod and line choices available today, it’s difficult to comprehend the place to begin. So listed below are some pointers for getting started with two-handed fly-fishing:
1. Commit to it. If you are contemplating a Spey rod, you need one. If you think you might need one, you possibly need three or four. If you are destined to turn out to be a Spey junkie, you should possibly end up with as many two-handers as you have single-handers. If money is tight, there are some outstanding choices out there. If it is easy to budget $500 for your initial outfit, you’re home free. If that’s too high, it is easy to still find a way.
2. Start with a full-sized rod, not a “switch” rod. Budding Spey fishers generally fall for the dainty switch rod. The shorter, lighter in weight rods appear like a great transitional step separating the old single hander and those genuinely long ones. And switch rods are outstanding nymphing sticks, but they are not the very best way to learn Spey casting, nor are they the right tool for most winter or spring fishing. Let go of your fear. The long rod is the way to go.
3. Buy two lines for every rod. You will require a Compact Skagit head with a suite of tips (intermediate, type 3, type 6 and type 8), AND you will require a Compact Scandi head for dry flies. Adhere to the rod manufacturers’ line suggestions to guarantee you have the right grain weight to match your new rod. You might even get a couple of ideas on line size or weight before you buy. Experts frequently disagree as to the ideal grain weight for a rod. If two experts are quibbling over 10 or 20 grains, go with the lighter in weight of the two, after that ask the guy who made the lighter in weight recommendation for a lesson. If you have two opinions and they’re off by 50 or 100 grains, get a third opinion.
4. Take a class and/or recruit a guide. Spey fishing is not a thing to “dabble” in. Like golf, you should often suck at it till you get serious. You gotta recruit a pro to train you (some should work for beer and food), you gotta practice, and you gotta really like it. Otherwise, stroll aside. Rely on me.
5. Commit one morning or afternoon a week to casting
Hopefully it should grow to a couple days a week. But you need to fish a minimum of once a week to generate progress, both as a caster, and as an angler.6. Debarb the flies and wear eye protection. Right up until you become intimate with Spey casting, barbed hooks are not safe. Individuals have had accident and end up in the hospital, thus reducing fishing days short, ending any dreams of a tip for the day, and flirting with tremendous liability.
The bigger the water, the more valuable a Spey rod becomes. Big rivers call for a “long rod” in the 13- to 15-foot range. Long rods can be as light as a 6-weight and as heavy as a 10- or 11-weight. Smaller rivers or low-water conditions can be best fished win shorter and/or lighter in weight rods.
The larger the fish, the heavier the rod. Summer time steelhead require 6- and 7-weights, winter weather steelhead, 7- to 9-weights, and kings 8- to 10-weights. If you’re swinging streamers for trout, there’s a whole class of lighter in weight two-handers just for you.
You want one rod that should do everything. But there is no such thing. There are a couple that come really close. My rod of preference a lot of the year is a 13′3″ 7-weight (7133). It’s a little heavy for small steelhead, a little lengthy for little rivers, and a wee burn for big submerge tips. But it has established to be heavy enough to take care of big catfish, which includes kings, yet burn enough to forged all day.
Just about every manufacturer offers rods in the 13-foot range for a 7-weight line. That’s the zone for your first rod. If you can invest $1,000 on the outfit, you’ll have many high-quality selections (Burkheimer, Sage, Winston, Zspey). If you are strapped for money, go with an Echo rod. A lot of professionals swear by them. If you can pay for the Dec Hogan series, do it, but Echo’s regular Spey rods are also outstanding, especially for the money.

It might be irritating to hear, in particular if you are struggling to come up with the money for your first Spey rod. But seasoned say it is important to always have a back-up rod. Rods are fragile, salmon and steelhead are big and feisty, and the fish gods may be cruel. The new Spey rod will require a partner, either a single-hander of comparable weight or an additional Spey rod.
