That is about the right size Skagit line for a #5 line Spey rod.

Thanks for the information.
I strugled with this combination perhaps due to being new to spey casting. The rod seemed to strugle with the length and weight. I attended a casting demo by Bill Lowe and matched the setup he was using.
It was recomended to try The Airflo Ridge Floating R-line, Beulah Tonic Switch Shooting Head 410 gr 22.5' and Elixer 380gr 29' with a Rio Spey Versileader Kit 10'.
I have not tried this setup yet I can only hope it works.
