13' 7/8wt. 5 piece Spey Rod Blank
We’ve brought back our popular 13' 7/8wt Spey Rod Kit — now updated with a more travel-friendly 5-piece blank.
This blank features a medium-fast action that performs exceptionally well across a wide range of conditions.
We’ve chosen a raw carbon finish with a semi-gloss top coat, providing a clean, neutral look that pairs well with a wide variety of hardware and thread color combinations. Each kit includes a rod sock and a spec label.
All of our blanks are sent to Steve Godshall, a respected expert who collaborates with the world’s top spey and switch rod/line designers. Steve has tested our blanks thoroughly and provides custom guide spacing and line grain recommendations:
-
Scandi: 500–600 grains
-
Skagit: 550–650 grains
You can order custom labels, and custom cork burning on the grip at the link below.
In addition to the black rod sock this rod ships with, we offer a custom made linen rod sock made to fit this rod. You can find it here: Linen Rod Socks
