I love Spey casting. I am still doing it with 10' rods but I did learn on a 13footer. I have a couple of rods coming from my sponsor.
The Okuma Aventa is a Float Rod to some but a Spey rod to the rest of us. They have a 13'6" and a 15'6". The country mile cast will come out of one of them.
I can spey at 90+ feet. You can do the Whip Cast with the same ones and get more distance. I am anticipating 140 or better with the 15'6" model. It is just right for 1/8oz to 3/8oz flies.
I can't wait.[cool]
