Show us your trout spey flies!

ECHO DH5122 sportin' one of them fancy English clickyclicky reels, old AirFlo g1 Skagit compact, 10' of t8 / t10 depending on where I'm flingin stuff.

Pretty much a scaled-down winter setup.

I personally don't use a trout THer, but when I utilize spey-style techniques it normally falls under the skagit umbrella where I'm throwing a commando head (240 for my 7wt glass SHer) and a short section of airflo T-7 (usually 7-8'). I'm a fan of using unweighted flies with this setup because they just cast so damn easy. Lately I've been using these for both swinging and my standard "rip it" technique where I'm dredging & they produce quite well. I started playing around with mallard with my trout streamers because when you twitch it or strip it, gives it some crazy darting action but still moves nicely on a standard swing.

If running weighted flies, I like how effective sculpzillas are, but I never do super well with keeping fish pinned on them.

Great looking flies. I have never used eyes, I’m guessing you find them effective. Have you tied the same flies with and without eyes and found a difference?

thanks.

I've never noticed a difference in effectiveness with or without eyes....I figure it can't hurt though.
