        <![CDATA[ Hi!


Finding salmon spey tapers are a bit difficult. Is there any one who have measured salmon tapers or created them? I am looking for +12&quot; tapers.


I have casted River Watch 13&quot; Penta and it was a wonderful rod. Also tried some Hardy&#39;s, Sharpes, Waara and Allcocks.


Please post here or send PM.


Thanks!

			<description><![CDATA[ Chris,
<br>
I was unable to find the rods you added to RodDNA? I am new with the program. How can I check the updated database? I only find a list of rods and there are
only couple of spey rod tapers. I think the reason is that I can&#39;t use it well.
<br>
Please help <img src="http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/frown.gif" alt="image">

Try the updated RodDNA database. I have entered all the tapers in the back of Wofram Schott&#39;s book &quot;Bamboo under the Microscope&quot; that includes a
lot of Spey tapers - Hardy, Leonard, two Sharpes, P&amp;M, Noergaards plus a playfair Grant Vibration. I have a RodDNA database with them in it.

			<description><![CDATA[ Vinnie is right about the Sharpes rods. I have an 11.5 foot 8 weight, and have cast a 12 foot 9 weight with ferrules. They are both very nice, and could
probably be bought at reasonable prices, if you can find one.
<br>
I should have mentioned that one of the absolute best spey rods I have ever cast is the one built by Vincent Marinaro. It&#39;s a 14 foot  rod with a 9 weight
tip, and a lighter tip that I think would be better with an 8, although I could not try that the day we cast the rod.... ]]></description>

Download V1.3 and scroll down the rod models. Some will be identified as spey tapers.
