BWO, personal choice is to cut the line closer to 20', especially with the lower line weights. While this does take away from the overall length of the head, the thicker line turns the head over better as well as not getting drowned as much by the faster sinking tips.I haven't noticed a huge casting sacrifice with lighter tips and I happen to think heavier tips fish a little better with the shorter overall head length.BN

I have rio midspey that I want to hack up and add some fifteen foot tips. Where would the appropriate location be for the cut. I have had conflicting information some say anywhere from fifteen to twenty two feet.
Thanks,
BWO
