 All fishing magazines and equipment product reviews
The Echo2 Saltwater series of fly rods were designed by Tim Rajeff to do what every chaser of big fish needs most in a fly rod; cast large flies, give the wind something to howl at, survive the rigors of serious fishing, and have the backbone to play tug-o-war with Moby Dick.
The rod is finished with an attractive dark blue surface, anodized fl aluminum reel seat with double up-locking rings, three large and extra hard stripper guides in titanium coated frames, large hard chrome snake guides and an excellent quality full wells cork grip on both (and a fighting butt handle on the 10 wt).
I set up the casting evaluation on a grassy marsh point of land that allowed a varied perspective to wind direction and wind velocity, typical of any outing an angler is likely to encounter.
