I was whondering that how many of You use shooting heads in spey casting? Do You make your own lines?
I just made one for my 15´ rod ,the line works very well. I took my old 12-13 line spey line, took the 9 meters for that belly, then I took 3,5 meters of 11# Loop Adapted intermediate line and in front of that I used 1,5 meters of no:2 sinking from 8# line.
So now I have shooting head that I can spey cast and I can correct that line( if I want to make small pockets) while that fly is fishing! The problem whit windcutters tip system is that those loop really sucks :tsk_tsk: , This shooting head doesn´t have any loops! Have You tryed these kind of things alot?
I use this method in my singlehand rods as well.
Thinght lines!
