Trout Spey
What exactly is Trout Spey?
As two-handed Spey casting has exploded in popularity over the last 20 years so too has the technology available in the manufacture of two-handed (Spey) rods.
This allowed for the development of lighter, more limber rods making two-hand rods no longer restricted in use to larger game fish.
Today, "Trout Spey" is all the rage. The amount of smaller, lighter equipment available has exploded in the last few years...and so has the number of anglers seen Spey casting with two-hands on trout rivers across the United States and abroad.
Every issue of Swing the Fly now features at least one dedicated Trout Spey article.
