Default New spey rod

Was wondering if any of you spey fishers out there use or have used a Beulah, in particular the 11'6 6/7 (summer/fall stuff)? Just picked it up today of course with a free line thanks to Don over at the River City Fly Shop.

Any good recommendations reel wise?

Thanks,

I like Lampson reels; they can be found on Sierra Trading Post for a very good price. But finding the right reel is not as important as the rod and line. You have a good set up and the reels is just going to hold everything together. Good luck with the new set up; I cast that rod at the spey clave in Sandy this year and loved it.

I run a Lamson Litespeed 4 and love it. A size 3 might be better for that rod though. ?? Mine's actually for sale with a t&t spey in the classifieds right now.

Thanks
