It is amazing how Spey casting and Spey fishing keeps growing.

More and more people are getting into it now.

Old Chuck Campana has just ordered a new Sage 6126 Spey rod!

Chuck has been fly fishing for Steelhead with a single handed fly rod sense the '50s and this will be his first Spey rod.

It seems to be attracting the "already into classic Steelheading" types.

Simon Gawesworth, Jeff Putnam and Adam Grace really got Kiene's off the ground in the Spey scene.

Bill, Thank you.

I appreciate that you included me with those two awesome spey casters but I'm not worthy. Simon and Jeff's reputations were the draw for the spey customers, I just BS'd with the knowledge passed down to me from Simon and Jeff. Both of them are infinately better casters than I am. I was just in the right place and time to have learned technique from both of them and then use that info to assist customers.

I am also very happy to see spey casting growing. Spey fishing is a very fun way to fish!

You and your customers are very lucky to have such a great spey instructor working for you. Jeff is awesome! I owe alot to Jeff for all of the years of free instruction and fun.
