toolman Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 We'll be hitting the Bow again this Sunday afternoon, Jan/18th, to play with the Spey/Switch rods/lines and work on the casting skillz. We'll be on river left (east side), across from the Fish Creek Boat Launch, starting around 1:00pm. These informal Spey gatherings are a lot of fun and a great opportunity to try lots of different rod/line combo's and meet some of the nice folks in our Spey community...The weather forecast looks good with warm, sunny skies and light winds... Everyone is welcome to join us...Hope to see you there. Greg Quote

luukesh Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Yeah, what Flyon said. Casted a bunch of dope sticks today. Might need to cut up my credit card! Was an awesome day, nice to meet you all. Quote
lethfisher Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 It was a blast!! Thanks to all the guys that let me try out their rods and give me some lessons on spey casting. Spey casting is way different than single handing that's for sure... I might have to go get myself a rod :) That switch rod was pretty sweet also the TFO one that was all noodly lol Quote
Frenchcreek Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Had a great time, met lots of coool folks and caught up on my own casting. Let's do it again. Quote
dino Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Good to meet everyone, looking forward to the next one! Regards Dean Quote

agbff Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 wish i could have kicked around for a bit longer, but i just love sitting in exam prep too much. Quote
toolman Posted January 20, 2009 Author Posted January 20, 2009 Video edited, looks good Well, I guess that's my You Tube debut...hahahaha... In this video I am casting HAMMERTIME08's new spey rod, an Albright GP 15' 10wt. 3-pc., which we lined with an Airflo Compact Skagit (600grains @ 26') and a 14' T-8 sink tip. The running line is #30 Airflo Ridge line and about 35' is going out on the shoot...A great afternoon of Speycasting on the Bow ... Thanks too all of the regular attendees for helping the newer casters get started... and too HAMMERTIME08 for the terrific Rod rack...I think we're gonna need a bigger one next time. Quote

SilverDoctor Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 I like the first version of the video better Greg. It's closer to my Spey casting style. Quote
