MICROSPEY AIR 2 — 10’9” 2WT.
The 2wt is our shortest model that is a sweet Scandi caster yet is more than capable of launching heavier Skagit heads and sinking tips. This this is a perfect small-river rod, or a bigger river stick when skating caddis, or presenting soft hackles. We like a 210 grain Skagit or a 180 grain Scandi. Add 8-10’ sinking or poly leaders that ring in the 80-grain range.
MICROSPEY AIR 2 — 11’ 3WT.
The do-it-all member of the family. From flashy sculpins on the Missouri, to swinging tandem soft hackles of the West Branch of the Delaware, this 3wt is up for the task. Capable of both long and short casts, it also pairs well as a great indicator rod for stillwater applications. Line it with a 240 grain Skagit, or a 210 grain Scandi with 10’ of T-10 for sink tips.
MICROSPEY AIR 2 — 11’3” 4WT.
Built with extra-power for bigger casts and flies, the 11’3” 4wt is the perfect choice for big water fishing. This powerful rod is ready for aggressive Skagit heads yet will handle longer lines utilizing touch-and-go techniques for ultra- smooth performance. A 300 grain Skagit or 275 Scandi, paired with 10’-12’ tips, are a sweet match for this amazing rod.
FEATURES
TIGHTER GRAIN WINDOWS. Each Microspey AIR 2 model aligns perfectly with industry-leading trout-specific two-hand lines in Skagit, Scandi, and Traditional styles.
A NEW SPEY GRIP – DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR TROUT. The newly designed, ultra-thin diameter grip provides instant feedback resulting in fewer blown anchors, and an ultra-light feel, that feels more “trout” than “spey.” The bottom grip is now longer, yet slimmer than the full-size versions, and provides anglers infinite ways to grip and control spey casts.
A BEAUTIFULLY FIGURED MAPLE REEL SEAT WITH DOWNLOCKING NICKEL SILVER COMPONENTRY. The Microspey AIR 2 features a stunning burled maple reel seat, produced exclusively for Winston’s timeless aesthetics. The hardware includes double downlocking nickel silver rings and componentry, for a classic look that is synonymous with Winston.
