Skagit, Scandi, Long Belly, Short Belly, Shooting Head...., comes down to it there isn't a perfect spey line that will fit every fishing situation encountered on every river.  Even if there were such a thing, given what human nature amounts too, it wouldn't fit everyone's personality.  There will always be room for experimentation.  It is fun to take pieces from different fly lines and put them together just to see what effects you can get.  Most often, you will find that factory lines are well thought out and will out-perform the

average fly caster in most situations.  However lines can be tuned to fit special rods for use in special situations, and sometime you just get lucky.  Where I camped the last ten days, gusts of over 30+ mph buffeted us from every direction some evenings.  Short heads and fine running lines give an edge over any other Spey line configuration during howling winds.  The first two evenings I used a 450-grain Rio Skagit Shooting Head combined with a 2.5' Cheater, a 15' floating tip and the new Scientific Anglers Shark Skin Shooting Line (soon to be in stock) on my Winston B2X78133.  It was good enough to allow me to stick five steelies in the two sessions. This line has a 44.5' head that weighs 609 grains.  I found if I fished a double fly rig with a Tail Gunner in the middle of my leader, I cast better.  The extra fly gave me more grab in the anchor to store energy to throw against the wind.  Later in the week I switched to an Airflo Compact Skagit 480-grain fastened to the end of some PowerFlex Core Shooting Line.  To the business end of this head was attached Rio 129-grain type-6 Sinking Tip. This line was propelled with my Sage 7136-4 Z-AXIS.  After a short period, it became obvious that this rig has virtually no limitation in range or sizes of flies it will handle. The next fishing period I substituted a 500-grain Rio Skagit Shooting Head for the Airflo shooting head and it loaded the rod equally well and there was no discernable difference in performance. In my estimation the 7136-4 Z-AXIS is the new standard in steelhead rods. That evening the wind returned.  A Rio AquaLux tip from an 8/9/10 WindCutter was installed on the Rio 500-grain Skagit Head.  This resulted in a 42' head of 629 grains. A hand tied 6' leader and single size-4 fly completed the terminal tackle.  The effect was astonishing.  The Rio Aqualux tip is fairly dense and rides low in the water. The extra density aides line stick in the anchor and velocity after the line is launched.  After the wind stopped, it got me three hook-ups one morning. Another line that does a remarkable job of fishing in the wind is Rio's AFS shooting head. With head lengths from 31' to 42' they are very compact. For small flies and normal fishing distances they are all you need to cover all floating line situations. Loop one to your favorite shooting line and give it a try.
