- Here are 4 slow motion single hand Skagit casts, all made on small rivers with 9 and 10 foot rods. Commando Heads make this type of casting fun and extremely effective. opskagit.com
Some nice casting . I have a reel spooled up in my bag at all times with an OPST single handed Skagit set up and when I get to a good swinging hole I just put it on my 6wt and I’m ready to go . Great product , thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Will be teaming up with the Tight Lines fly shop here in Green Bay and using these heads on their guided tours!!! So excited!!
My next setup for trout. Looking forward to getting up in the mountains with this product.
Can't wait to try these Commando heads on smallmouth in Wisconsin on my 5wt.
i wish i could cast that well. someday. got lots of practicing to do.
opst..Luv it...!!! game changer for me .thank you very much.
I know you can slow down the RUclips videos however it would be great to show the casting portions of these videos in slow motion. IMHO
It looks so damn elegant
Thanks!
you guys should post a baitfish pattern for us trout guys who like fishing the skagit stuff.. love the disco sculpin and trevors sculpin
Excellent.
Goood Dog !
Nice
200g head with a floating mow tip should be kosher??? Agree/disagree??
+OPSkagit yes a 5wt. Just picked up your lazar line as well. The whole package. Looking forward to the spring.
not ideal. but I'm able to toss 10' t11 with 200gr on a 5wt,,,impressive.
the line not me hahahah
Класс! Голова 7 метров?
I've got a vision cult 9'6 #8 which opst line should i have?
I have a g-loomis short stick 7'6" 8/9 weight rated for 300/350. What head would you recommend for that rod?
hi ,never can stop watching tjis video..i luv this product. Q, recently while i was fishing , i notice my 230g opst was fully submerge in the water while i was lake fishing..i was not using a sink tip just a 10ft leader with a bedded nymph.. it floated for 1st dy but by the 2nd dy, the line begin to submerge almost like a intermediate line.. is that suppose to happen.? thanks , hope you gys can clarify my curiosity. cheers.
if your line gets dirty it might do that. if mine sinks and gets harder to cast i clean and treat the shooting head with floatant.
I have Loop cross s1 9´6" #7 weight. What head would you recommend for that rod?
We recommend a 275 for that rod. Enjoy! -Ben Paull, OPST
thanks for the reply
Lazar running line in this video? Thanks, Steve
such friend, sorry for my English, I'm using translator ... I consulted, I have a cane Redington Crosswater # 8 9ft, I have thought to use a Skagit line 250 grain, since being a rod medium-fast action, not if you work with one of more grain ... you say goes well with 250grain?
I would recommend a 275 grain Commando for that rod.
I have a 8'6" Sage One 5wt. I just bought a 225 grain head and 50lb Lazar line. Does this sound like a good fit? Also, need advice on tips. Thanks in advance. Can't wait to get on the water with this rig.
I’m using the 225 on my 9ft 6wt and it feels perfect, but I also have a medium fast instead of a normal fast. The 225 might load perfect on that fast action Sage. I was dumb enough to try and use my 10ft sink tips that I use for my 7wt Spey with this and it went horribly. I ended up buying some T-8 and T-11 cut to 7.5ft and looped and it casts perfect now!

On your site you recommand 275 grains for a 7 weight. Do you think its best to go for 300 like in this vid?
10' 7 weight sage accel. I might be overhead casting but mostly skagit.
+OPSkagit What would size head would you recommend for a 8' 4wt Greys GS2?
***** Alright thanks!
Why is it called skagit casts? Correct me if I'm wrong here but spey casts with skagit line?
Hello and thanks for the inquiry. If you were to look up a traditional Spey cast, it would consist of a long belly line, usually 60'+. This requires plenty of back casting room. Whereas a Skagit cast was developed to deal with high banks and limited back-casting space. This calls for a shorter head and a smaller D loop.
One pro Issue never mention is ability to manage Windy conditions ! @@OPSkagit One
Is this mainly for fishing streamers?
I have a g-loomis short stick 7'6" 8/9 weight rated for 300/350. What head would you recommend for that rod?

I would recommend our 300 grain for that rod, with a Rio spey versileader of 6 feet or a Salmon/Steelhead Airflo polyleader of 5 feet.
