I need help here! I have a RODE NTG-2, which I absolutely love due to its sensitivity. However, this sensitivity extends so much that wind is a big issue with this mic. I have the basic windscreen, and a Rycote softie (which functions quite effeciently in mid-breezes)...but I need to record in heavy winds. I'm pretty sure that a K-Tek Zeppelin would help immensely, but I need some professional opinion!
Apart from pre-mic wind isolation (i.e. walls or umbrellas), is there anything better to use on a boom mic for wind-isolation?

the fury zeppelin is the most used
they can be DIY'ed but generally people start with a typical cage then they , might DIY the cover
there is always a consequence to the sound but it's a matter of survival in the wind ... and rain
a good light weight boom and a very soft rubber sprung mount/hanger for the mic
just my opinion but I think the bigger the Zep the better
some suggest there is an sound inside that the bigger ones show ... more
borrow or hire one
make your own mind up
then buy or make
good luck
