RE Rio Sink Tip Compensator
I just bought a New Mid Spey 7/8 with the tips and the sink tip compensator for my Sage 7141.
Hopefully the Yuba or American River flows will be down enough this Thursday or Friday to go try it.
I have a WC 678 with tips, and I intend to mix and match the tips from the WC 678 as well as the tips from my new Mid Spey 7/8. To see the difference if any when cast with and w/o the compensator.
In another thread on this section, (Chart for Relative Rio Sink Tip Fishing Depth w/compensator and w/o) I posted the fishing depth without and with the compensator and the various tips. It really seems to sink the tips. I will take my chart with me to calculate what tip should be use with or without the compensator to get my fly down where I want it.
