I have a 13' TFO Deer Creek 7/8 spey rod for $250.  A 7/8 spey rod is plenty for local steelhead as the line rating is different for spey rods.

Good for throwing long distances, weighted flies, and sink lines.

That is a beautiful reel Hawg,  mine is far from mint (my father got plenty of use out of it as did his father before him).  I would be interested in this reel after Christmas (cannot really justify such a purchase so close to Christmas and I just replaced my Sage Launch that I managed to lose the tip section off of last month.  I will pass your information here along with my Christmas list so perhaps my Secret Santa might contact you.  Otherwise I will check back in the new year to see if it is still available.
