I started learning to spey cast last summer.
When I bought the rod I was set up with a Cortland DT Spey line.
After some brief chats with other spey casters I get the impression that the cortland is not the best line for me to use.
I'm interested in purchasing a new line.
The question is what line should I get?
The rod I have is a Redington Redfly 13' 8/9
I figure I a Rio Grandspey or SA XLT would be wasted on a short rod like this, but maybe I'm wrong.
The Rio Windcutter is touted as being great for beginners.
Is this true?
What about the Rio Midspey?
My overall stragtegy is to get a good floating line, then rig a second spool with a made or purchased multi-tip.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
