The Skagit line is used for water borne anchor Spey casts, so usually used for heavy sink tips along with large flies. This is used on Snap T and similar casts where the water anchors the line and loads the rods. For over head Spey casts or splash and go type casts you want to use a Scandi line or a long belly like a Airflo Delta (there are others) but these lines are used for floating lines and flies and maybe light sink tips (not sure what you are using in the surf). I have not fished in the surf all my experience comes from rivers. You can google Simon Gawesworth on you tube and he has some good videos and explanations of the different casts and lines. I'm a member on Speypages and there are some on there that have more experience using a Spey Rod in the surf so you could always post the question there. Good luck.
