    The Commando Head is the one that started the trout spey and single hand spey casting phenomenon. These ultra-short heads (running from a mere 12' to 18' in length) will let you make all manner of spey casts on your 9 foot single hand rod, trout spey, or switch rod. Note that these heads must be matched up with a running line such as Lazer Line. For sizing recommendations see the image to the left.

    The Launch is our favorite "standard length" Skagit head for your Spey rod. At 23'-25' in length, the Launch smoothly casts big flies and heavy tips. The use of Rio's proprietary Slickcast means this line will last longer and the newly refined taper better matches up with MOW tips, T-11, T-14 and other heavy tips.

    Not sure which running line to get for your switch or Spey rod? Get this one. We love Rio's Metered Running Line. It is super slick so it really flies but it is still easy to handle with cold hands. It has a low stretch core so hook sets are solid and executing casts is straight forward. And the color changes every 10 feet so you can easily gage how far your cast went and effectively cover a run or pool.

    The Skagit Max Power is the 'Short' version of the Skagit family and is ideal for switch rods and short Spey rods. If you are swinging Alaska-sized flies on your switch rod this is the line you want. The refined taper smooths out the cast when using MOW Tips or 10 feet of T11 or T14. And with a Slickcast coating these lines are the most durable and long lasting on the market.
