Description

Excellent all around, general use rod. It did great with skagit and scandi heads. I only used it a few times. Has minor wear marks on the blanks, no scratches though. Reel seat has a minor scrape. The shorter length gives you small and medium river versatility, but it can still bomb a skagit
Excellent all around, general use rod. It did great with skagit and scandi heads. I only used it a few times. Has minor wear marks on the blanks, no scratches though. Reel seat has a minor scrape. The shorter length gives you small and medium river versatility, but it can still bomb a skagit head 70' with little effort. I actually fished a scandi on it with great success since the tip is no slouch. Skagit head was 450gr, which seemed perfect. Scandi was 435gr, which also seemed perfect for me, but an expert touch and go caster would probably prefer a 420gr. This rod punches above its price point by a long shot. I priced it to sell quick. The two-hand anglers toolkit is evolving. Efficient and versatile, modern short-format head systems are a popular and practical solution for many common casting and presentation issues. Recognizing this, Tom Larimer and Steve Rajeff joined forces to create a collection of true spey actions carefully crafted to meet the performance characteristics of this new breed of fly lines. All five models share an 1111 length, perfect for executing short swings and managing low overhead canopies. With progressive flex patterns, medium-fast actions, and pumped power levels, IMX-PRO ShortSpeys jack casts like your favorite long rod. Conduit Core technology and Multi-Taper design enhance positive feel, and provide ultimate balance from the tip to lower grip.

Once considered a niche way to target fish, trout spey has become a proven tactic to secure success on the water. Granting the ability to cover large sections of river efficiently and effectively, lighter rods matched with modern line systems can be a difference-maker, especially when other methods leave anglers empty-netted.
