Read this article written by Ed Ward that I just found on the "2 Handed Trout" web site.

Two-handed rods are getting shorter and lighter now with large Spey rod sale faiding away.

Long heavy #9 and 10 weight Spey rods sale are all but non-existant for us now.

Some are still used on the big Euorpean Atlantic Salmon rivers and for King Salmon in Alaska but an 8 weight now seems to be the "big gun" for Steelhead Spey.
