WindCutter® II Spey
The original spey line, frequently imitated, never bettered, made with RIO’s XS Technology™ for an extraordinarily slick, dirt-repelling coating. It has an easy loading head between 45 ft (13.7 m) – 56 ft (17.1 m) (depending on the size) and is the most versatile of all spey lines.
The WindCutter II is available in two formats:
1) a full floating line with a welded loop at the front end for attaching RIO’s VersiLeaders to, or
2) a VersiTip line with a body and a selection of 15 ft (4,6 m) tips. These tips are: floating, clear intermediate (1.5 ips, 4 cm/s), DC Type 3 (3 ips, 8 cm/s), DC Type 6 (6 ips, 15 cm/s) and DC Type 8 (8 ips, 20 cm/s) sinking tip and each tip features RIO’s thin, non-hinging welded loops. The WWF 5/6 does not include a Type 8 tip. The 4/5 is only available as a floating line.
RIO has improved the VersiTip version by removing the middle floating tip (Tip 2) that has been a standard in the past.
Sizes: 4/5 (Switch rod #5), 5/6 (Switch Rod #6), 6/7/8 (Switch rod #7), 7/8/9 (Switch rod #8), 8/9/10 (Switch Rod #9), 9/10/11 (Switch rod #10) & 10/11/12 (Switch rod #11)
