Long Belly Spey Lines

[Paul Arden]

Hi folks,

So I’m trying to track down an XLT but this might be impossible. What long belly Spey lines do people recommend nowadays? What lines are being used in the 15’ WCs?

Anything highly recommended from SA or RÍO?

Thanks,
Paul

You're serious aren't you.

Yep! Lasse and I had an agreement that we would compete for second to last place in the WCs.

XLT went out of production like 15 years ago mate

Long belly spey lines , the rio longhead spey, the ballistic vector and gaelforce 63 ft head are all good and made by Rio btw.

For competition, gaelforce EED 80 foot is the most used line, lots of similar ones around too, or make your own head

Looking forward to beating you in that event too at the WC


Cheers
Lasse

Yep I’ve just emailed Simon. I hope you won’t be wearing girly waders for this event.

Good, and of course I will

I think speedos would be more sporting attire.

[Lasse Karlsson]

I think you should go for the speedo look!

I think you should go for the speedo look!

With latex thigh waders and a ball gag.

Just one question remains… tweed or camouflage?
