  • Affinity Plus Double Handed Fly Blanks
The classic progressiv taper, flex and speed of recovery will allow efficient delivery of all contemporary two handed line systems.
Scandi shooting heads, and classic underhand power delivery technique will inherently require tip loading. The Affinity Plus DH tapers with a very economic stoke, utilizing only minimal applied dominant underhand power.
Minimal anchor "touch and go" deliveries typical of classic Scandi shooting line systems will require utilizing only the 2/3 of the Affinity Plus DH tapers for maximum performance.The longer bellied classic Spey tapers will inherently demand a far deeper reserve of blank load. The efficient delivery of classic bellied Spey tapers will ask the caster to perform a longer stroke and wider hand spread. The power source (with these lines) will ask for an even and balanced high hand/low and power in cordination with slightly dominant low hand power at the shot.
The Affinity Plus DH tapers have the butt reserve to transfer power well into the cork when asked; and will deliver the longer bellied classic Spey tapers with a sensual autorithy that is a joy to have in hand.

  • Affinity Skagit Taper Double Handed Fly Blanks
With classic Spey tapers: The Affinity SK DH rods are very autoritive in the delivery of mid to long belly Classic Spey tapers, and will do especially well with full sink Spey tapers and heavy flies. Mid to long belly Spey tapers will inherently ask for a wider stroke. This best done with an even high hand/low hand power push, and a slight underhand power at the end of the stroke.
