    Thanks for the reply. As I said YMMV. I just enjoy my angling to be closer to me.

    Aside from longer casts, what are the benefits of a 2-handed rod?

    I see absolutely no benefit to the two handed rod, maybe cause you cant and I mean cant cast a single hand rod. Spey casting is just that CASTING. A well knowledge angler knows the fish are easily within 40-60 ft . Sure the back cast is limited on certain runs of water. So what, learn to roll...

    Upper Columbia River Trip

    I went the last week in May. I was told the creek mouths that feed into that stretch would be just opening and the fish would be unmolested. I really enjoyed the "early" season where the fish had not been fished over as much. I would do this trip again at the same time.
