maxwell Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 the magic number for a similar switch rod i fish is in teh 300 - 340 grain window.. a compact scandi head would be great! or a skagit short if u want too turn over larger streamers and tips.. what are you plannin on using the rod for would be the biggest question?

headscan Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Rio's recommendations for your rod are: Skagit - 475 grains AFS - 7/8 Windcutter - 7/8/9 or 8/9/10 Since those are Simon Gawesworth's preferences you might find you prefer something a little heavier. Depends on your ability as well as how deep a load you like. If you want to go with a skagit I'd suggest borrowing an Airflo Compact Skagit kit, then starting with the 480 grain head, see how you like it, then try one size heavier and one lighter.
