Built with the award-winning AIR 2 material platform, these rods offer lighter overall weight, faster recovery, better connection, and the smooth feel Winston is known for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned specifically for trout Spey applications, the Microspey AIR 2 provides excellent feedback through the cast and swing. Whether you are adding movement to swung flies, covering water with soft hackles, skating caddis, or fishing small streamers, this series gives trout anglers increased line control and a more connected feel when fighting trout-sized fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePerformance and Presentation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith lighter blank weight and improved graphite recovery, the Microspey AIR 2 is built for a wide range of two-handed trout casting techniques, including Snap T casts, touch-and-go casts, and Snake Rolls. The rods load smoothly, recover quickly, and provide the feel needed to present flies with confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAll-new Microspey tapers help improve presentation while still offering enough crispness on the forward cast. These rods work well with trout Spey lines in Skagit, Scandi, and traditional styles, making them versatile tools for fishing lighter leaders, sink tips, poly leaders, and swung-fly presentations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTrout-Centric Design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe newly designed thin-diameter Microspey grip provides feedback through the casting stroke, helping reduce blown anchors and improve casting consistency. The longer 4\" bottom grip gives anglers more hand-position options while maintaining a slimmer profile than a full-size Spey grip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Microspey AIR 2 is finished with a figured maple reel seat produced exclusively for Winston, nickel silver hardware, double downlocking rings, and trout-focused componentry. Each rod comes with a logo rod sock and premium graphite tube and is designed and handcrafted in Twin Bridges, Montana, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMedium-fast action with classic Winston feel and faster blank recovery\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBoron III Technology in the grip section\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAIR 2 S-2000 graphite throughout all sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNewly designed 11\" thin-diameter Microspey foregrip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLonger 4\" bottom grip for improved two-handed casting leverage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNickel silver hardware with figured maple reel seat insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble downlocking rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiCH-finished stripper guide with nano-plasma ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpecial chrome snake guides\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOversized tip-top\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFour-piece construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePremium graphite tube and logo rod sock included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned and handcrafted in Twin Bridges, Montana, USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x: auto;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctable\u003e\n    \u003cthead\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n        \u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n        \u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eLine Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n        \u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eSkagit\u003c\/th\u003e\n        \u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eScandi\u003c\/th\u003e\n        \u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eLength\u003c\/th\u003e\n        \u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eTop Grip\u003c\/th\u003e\n        \u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eBottom Grip\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003c\/thead\u003e\n    \u003ctbody\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e2109-4\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e2 wt.\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e210 gr.\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e180 gr.\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e10'9\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e11\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e4\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003c\/tr\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e3110-4\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e3 wt.\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e270 gr.\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e240 gr.\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e11'0\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e11\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e4\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003c\/tr\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e4113-4\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e4 wt.\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e300 gr.\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e250 gr.\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e11'3\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e11\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003ctd\u003e4\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n  \u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNote: Microspey AIR 2 grain windows were developed primarily around trout-specific Skagit and Scandi lines from approximately 12' to 24' in head length.
