single hand spey rods

The world of Steelhead and Salmon fishing has evolved quite a bit over the last couple of decades. With the popularity of long rods and all the new line configurations a whole new world has opened up to the fly angler.  In this reawakening, spey casting has taken a front seat and now drives fly angling in the anadromous world.  This has lead to an undercurrent of anglers looking to continue fishing single handed rods but employ spey casting techniques.  Introducing the CF Burkheimer Single Handed Spey Rods.  Whether casting sink tips with skagit style heads, floating scandi like heads for surface presentations or a full floating Double Taper (yes, you read correctly).  These rods do it and do it with ease.  By adding a haul during the spey cast you will be amazed and awed by the results.  These rods load deeper allowing the entire length of the rod to be utilized during the cast.  But don't let that fool you, as it's recovery is very quick for less rod bounce and fatigue. Once you discover how spey casting techniques open doors in your angling you will find yourself utilizing them in most all aspects of your fishing both two-hand and single-hand.  A natural progression that makes fishing with a fly even easier.
