I'm a fan of proper spining, however, I'll add that someetimes a fly rod is built with the spine off by 90 deg. This is to compensate for sidearm caster. I uset to build alot of fly rods for a shop on Long Island and I was asked to build them this way. As for spiral wrapping... Definitely a great way to go. Billy showed me one of his and under load that darn thing jumped to the upright position. Very cool indeed. Funny looking? Aaah... Who cares LOL!
