Angler's Roost 12 5/6 Spey Line Help

[Eelpout]

Hi

 

I have just begun to fool around with my ARE 12ft 5/6 spey (not the switch) and a 390gr Airflo Scandi Compact (for dry fly/light nmph/emergers work and goldeyes on the N. Sask River). I am looking for a second line/head that will enable me to use indicators on lakes or swing streamers on mostly floating lines (super heavy or long sink tips not really needed).

 

The two lines I am mostly looking at are the Rio Switch and Airflo Speydicator (mostly the Rio due to ease of availability).

 

Just looking for people that have used either of the lines, maybe even hopefully with the ARE rod.

 

Also, how do mid-belly lines handle indicators. I simply am a rook when it comes to most of this kind of stuff.

 

thanks...
