The Rage Compact performs well in windy conditions. I’ve used it with a 210-grain leader and it casts smoothly even when the wind is strong. The thick tip helps with turnover and keeps the fly stable in the air.

It’s a solid choice between Skagit and Scandi heads. The floating design works well with my current setup. I noticed better control when casting in gusty weather compared to my previous head.
