"10wt. Single Hand Skagit line"

Terre Rogers on 6/20/2021 12:14:12 PM

Review: This 425 grain Skagit Max Short versitip casts easily using 10wt single hand rod for spey. I use it for winter spey fishing on smaller rivers where tree cover can dominate the shoreline. Snap T, double spey and even the occasional single spey cast work well with this line and rod combo. The 425 grain weight just gets into the realm of throwing large weighted steelhead flies.
