So what's the big deal about the way we SCANDINAVIANS get our Spey cast
out there? Since its beginnings in the 1960's, Scandinavian influence
from top tournament casters and fishermen, schooled on famous
Salmon/Seatrout rivers of Sweden and the west coast of Norway, have
played a mojor role in the development of our highly versatile style.
Our style provides tremendous distance, depth and presentation control,
all with minimal effort. We use a looped Shooting Head line, available
in differing densities, ranging in length from 34 to 42 feet depending
on rod length along with thin diameter shooting line. Teamwork from a
fast butt hand stroke and relative short uper hand stroke, ( overall
about half the movement of traditional style casting ), a sudden stop
to unload, forms narrow loops that can slice bread. These very narrow
loops help make very long casts turn right over. This style cast is
most effective with faster taper, yet very light rods. Enter G.Loomis
STINGER SERIES two-hand rods. These rods have just the right action, a
powerful butt transitioning smoothly to a fast tip that will deliver
the razor loops characteristic of the Scandinavian method of spey
casting. Our style will keep you on the water longer, a smile on your
face, and without a case of the "jelly arms." For
the needs of the SCANDINAVIAN style of casting, we offer the
ROARINGRIVER STINGER series. With eight rods, ranging from 12'6" to
15', these rods were designed to optimally cast floating or
intermediate shooting heads of 33 to 46 ft. This is the most recent
development in two-hand casting, a much faster, shorter stroke using
the lower hand (underhand casting). These rods help you generate high
line speed and give you great shooting distance casts. With a fast
action taper, these rods let you make overhead false casts, generating
the highest line speed possible. That's assuming you have sufficient
room for back casting, such as gravel bar or ocean beaches.
STINGER GLX - At first glance you'll notice the nickel titanium recoil
guides by REC, which are different both in looks and function. Weighing
about as much as one individual traditional guide, the total weight of
the rod is noticably lighter. They're also flexible, making a mistake
like catching a tree branch, nothing but a slight hang up. Exquisitely
crafted Portuguese cork handles with a special composite cork end-cap
and fore-grip fitted to our exclusive offset-oval sculptured our
proprietary GLX graphite tapered to the exact standards of Skandinavian
style casting. STINGER ALTA - These tods help you generate
very high line speed thanks to a special graphite blend forulated for a
fast action. With premium Hopkins and Halloway components and beautiful
Portuguese cork handles, the Alta offers everything you could want for
Scandinavian style casting.
