Well I can understand the money thing, your probably looking at $ 400 - $ 600 to get a starter rod, line, and reel that will hold a spey line.

Need to pick up a couple of spey videos or take a lesson so throw in another $ 100 unless you have a spey buddy that can get you going with the casting.

I can tell you once you learn how to do it you are more effective fly fisherman and it is easier on your body than single hander casting all day. And more fun !
