Northland Fly Specialty> Fly Casting

Spey casting has been around since Isaac Walton, but it has hit North America by storm. In the last few years many anglers are quickly realizing the advantage to the “Two Hander Spey Rod” longer casts, less effort, more fly in the water time, especially Angling for British Columbia’s winter Steelhead.

Any one that has spent a few days throwing big flies across a wide river will be quick to admit that they slept like a log that night. Put this into a double hand perspective and you can do twice the job with half the effort and look forward to daylight in the morning to start all over again, searching for large chrome fish!

Once the Spey casting gets familiar, you will find your self making the same style of casts with a single handed rod, in conditions you never thought possible before. Don’t forget, catching fish is all about how much time your fly is in the water!
