#81969 - 07/10/99 11:59 PM How to set up a spey rod system?
steelheader Eyed Egg Registered: 07/09/99 Posts: 5 Loc: Bremerton, WA	I recently built a Sage 8/9 wt spey rod and have heard so many things about what kind of system to use. Right now I have a spey line (a DT9 floating from Orvis), but it takes up a whole lot of room on the reel and doesn't leave much room for backing -- which also leads to inconsistent drag settings. Does anyone have any tips or direction that would be helpful for me. ------------------
