Ed Ward on the Perry Poke – OPST Video

Listen to Ed. Photo: OPST screenshot.

When it comes to skagit-style spey casting, we think its safe to say that the Perry Poke is one of the most versatile casts an angler can have in his/her repertoire. That being said, its actually one of the least used casts we tend to see from guests at our lodges.

Therefore, when Alaska West alum and co-father of skagit casting, Ed Ward, teems up with our friends from OPST to make a video on the finer points of the Perry Poke with both one and two hands, we listen.. And we think you should too.

Give it a watch below!
