Does anyone have any first hand/ real world input on the Northfork Composite Spey Rod blanks?


Thinking of building one out but would like input from someone with a finished product.

Not looking for customer service stories or warranty diatribe, just casting and performance info.

Thanks.

The NFC static deflection charts on their website show tapers fairly similar to classic Loomis two-handed rods (GLX, GL3, GL4), with light tips and very progressive, to stiffer mid and especially strong butt sections. The handful of Godshall tapers that I have cast are similar to this. It gives a light crisp feel with shorter floating lines. Feels pretty different from the strong tip, deep flex, through action class of two-handed rods. I’ve not cast an NFC, so this is a guess from their charts, but is consistent with their pedigree. Hopefully someone with first hand experience (and providing more detail than “they’re awesome!” …) can chime in.
