Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Does anyone have a Scandi Line I can try?

I've been researching my Batson 11'6  6/7  after it was completely underlined with a 320grain line.  I tried an WF11 single handing line an I know it isn't the perfect line, it was about right for overhead casting, but not nearly enough for rollcasting.  Online there is a consensus this rod is really a 7/8.   I am getting ready to build a 13' 7wt as well, so I'm sure I will be acquiring an arsenal of lines eventually.

The whole array of spey lines that are available:  head/leader/cheater  skagit/scandi/spey  is mind boggling.  I figured I would start with scandi and work my way out from there.

What rod do you have?

Buying heads just to try them out seems like it could get expensive.
I'm waiting for the winter "casting club" to fire up now that I have taken the Spey plunge.
