There is a decent amount of parking at the Ben Howard Boat Launch. But if you are trying to coordinate with a group. You might try parking at Lewis Street Bridge in Monroe and carpooling to Ben Howard.
Representatives will be on hand from Olympic Peninsula Skagit Tactics. The group will give a demo and then put a rod in your hand to try.
We have been playing around with these heads for some time now. On steelhead outings these fly lines play a vital roll in covering small water with a swung fly.
Many smaller rivers like the higher coastal streams of the Oregon, Washington, California and British Columbia are perfect for single-hand spey techniques.
The OPST Commando Head is a short (12 through 18 feet) and are best cast on 9 foot trout rods on up to two-handed rods around 12 feet. You can take your standard trout fishing rod and create a really fun new setup.
