Airflo Speydicator Fly Line...Gods gift to nymphing

My last major fly rod purchase was earlier this year when i finally bit the bullet and got on the switch rod bandwagon. And i must say that i am impressed with the abilities of my Buelah 6/7. The matching elixar scandi head makes fishing a classic wet fly or skater a joy. But to me and obviously many others the obvious use of the "switch" rod is nymphing, but switch rods currently are having the same problems that spey rods had a decade or more ago, lots of good rods, and really no lines.......Actually with the exception of Beulah and a couple of high end small custom fly rod shops like the amazing Bob Meiser there are no specific swith lines, people right now are playing with the grain windows plugging in either smaller spey lines or big single hand lines, both of which can work, but nymphing is a tricky business, despite what alot of inexperienced fly fishermen think getting the fly out there is not the hard part, that is the easy part, controlling the fly or flies and line once you get it out there is the tricky part.
Thankfully enter Airflo from stage right. They put out a new line specifically designed for nymphing with switch or spey rods, Aptly named the Speydicator. Obviously being a devil worshipping bottom bouncer i had to have 0ne and picked one up this last week. I took it out to the metolius yesterday for a little on the water testing....

I picked up the 7wt Speydicator to match up to my 6/7 spey, the 7wt line is over the grain window of my switch but i decided to go with it anyways, never know till you try. I man alive was i not dissapointed. The construction of this fly line to me is very impressive. You can single hand cast it or spey cast it or anywhere in between. I basically feels like your casting a skagit head, the tip lifts and launches two heavy nymphs on a 12ft leader with a large thingamabobber with ease, but the beauty when casting is if room permits the head is plenty long enough to really open up some spey casts, get a nice big d loop behind you and boom casts all the way across the river.....of course alot of lines can do that......its the fishing ability that makes this line amazing. the head is long enough that it mends with ease, but after the head is this long"mending" zone before the running line. This allows you to mend and control your line from a long distance and make drifts that are so far out and so long its basically cheating.....and i love it.

Bushes at your back, no problem, give it a little perry poke action and bam the nymphs are in the middle of the river, and with this line you make a incredible 50ft drift.....

If you fish heavy nymphs alot for trout or steelhead then i HIGHLY recommend a switch rod and matching speydicator line....it works so well it shouldn't be legal.
