Spey Casting Workshops Learn to Spey Cast

Spey casting is the latest craze amongst the angling world! A method of fishing that requires very little back casting room, very little strength and lots of distance, it is suited perfectly for many of B.C.'s large and rocky rivers.

Done right, this sport is gentle on the body and ideal for those who experience shoulder and elbow discomfort

The Spey rod is longer than the single hand rod, typically ranging from 12-15 feet in length, allowing the angler to control the drift/swing of the fly with ease. In this two day course we will teach students, both beginners and advanced, the mechanics of Spey-casting and how to make these long rods do the work for you.
