Fishing The Fly Scotland Forum

Jonty Goodchild

Hello All, I’m after some recommendations for a 10’ or 10’6” #5 rod for wild brownies in the lochs of Forsinard and Assynt.  Not too fast as I’m casting a team of 3 flies and tight loops just cause problems and is an easy casting rod from boat and bank. Any thoughts or anyone got such a rod they may be looking to sell.

Hi Jonty

I believe the Snowbee Spectre RMX 10' rod for a #5 was designed for Loch Style fishing, as it does say that in the rod's description.

I've not fished it I'm afraid, but at £199 - it might be worth adding to your list to explore.
