Simon, my spey superman.

Thank you Simon for the great two part video. Made the jump to a switch Spey rod 5 months ago. Absolutely love it.

Glad you enjoyed the videos, and thanks for commenting. We'll let Simon know you enjoyed it so much...

If the Skagit setup casts the heavy stuff, I would think you can use it for some light setups as well, that way you don’t need another reel or rod. Thoughts?

[@FarBank]

You can certainly do so, but you would need to add a much lighter tip than the MOW tips mentioned. A tapered replacement tip or even a Trout VersiLeader (if the Skagit head is light enough - sub 300 grains) would help make it land much lighter...
