Hi guys;
I'm looking for a backup rod (have a Redington Dually) for my next spey trout trip in Spain this Fall.
Any review on this guy ?

I think the quality is quite good (80% of the fly rods are made in China) but what size I have to choose ? I'de like to put a 275/300 gran fly line like the OPST Commando Skagit and a T8 or T10 Mow tip on it. Should I go with 4 or 5 wt ?
One more question, the head lenght of 10 or 12' is nice for this kind of rod ?
Thanks
