5WT:
Anglers needing a crossover rod for trout and light steelhead should consider this for their summer steelhead and big trout river needs. Tip recommendations: 10 feet of T8T10, 10 poly leaders
6WT:
Built in 126 and 133 tapers, both offer a lighter touch for steelhead. The classic 126 adds versatility to both Skagit and dry line applications. The 133 is the perfect winter steelhead rod, that can get smaller flies in the strike zone. Tip recommendations: 10 feet of T8T10, 10 poly leaders
7WT:
The 123 model lends itself to tight spots and heavy tips on smaller steelhead water and our classic 133 taper, is arguably the most versatile spey rod ever created. Tip recommendations: T8-14 10-12
8WT:
These powerful 8 weights appeal to 2 different fishing applications. The 133 appeals to the shorter Skagit and Scandi lines and tips. The 146 is our traditional long-belly option for fishing greased lines, or longer Scandinavian shooting heads. Tip Recommendations: T10-14, 10-14
9WT:
An amazingly light and responsive rod but built with extra power to handle giant king salmon. This rod casts the big flies on heavy Skagit lines needed to land the most powerful fish that swim from the ocean into the river. Tip Recommendations: T12-18, 10-12
