The Echo Classic fly fishing rods were designed by Tim Rajeff to be the best value in available performance fly rods. All Echo Classic fly rods feature an incredibly modest price but still perform like "premium" fly rods and outperform any comparibly priced rod. The power and action of each Echo rod is specifically designed for optimal performance in its most widely used application. All Echo Classic rods are four piece fly rods with a gloss deep emerald finish, ceramic stripper guides and single foot snake guides. Depending on the model, handles are Half or Full Wells grips with mortised, impregnated hardwood reel seats or anodized aluminum reel seats. Each rod comes with a cloth sock and cordura-covered PVC rod tube. |

Tim's Power Rating: 7.5 The ECHO 9'0" #7 was designed with several fisheries in mind. As a heavier fresh water rod it can put the hurt to the toughest smallies, big rainbows, and light steelhead. As a saltwater rod it can handle the sinking lines used for schoolie stripers and on the flats it makes a great lighter bonefish rod. It has extra power in the butt that is complemented with a fairly light tip giving the rod a fast action. The rod is designed to throw small to large flies. Linesize: 7 Height: 9'0" MSRP: $169.95

The ECHO 10’0” #7 was designed as a steelhead / large trout
/ lake rod. In the UK the most popular rod is a 10’ #7 because
of its ability to cast sinking lines. The ECHO rod does just
that. Its length helps mend line when fishing greased line flies
for steelhead. It is also popular for the chuck and duck crowd.
It has a medium fast action. The rod is designed to throw medium
to large flies.

The ECHO 9’0” #8 is the close cousin to the 9’#7 rod.
Designed to drive casts into tough winds without losing the
ability to load during a short cast, the 9’#8 is the best fly
rod in the ECHO line by those who demand a rod with power but
one that is not heavy in the hand. It has a medium fact action.
The rod is designed to throw medium to large flies.

The ECHO 9’0” #9 was designed with three fisheries in mind.
The rod performs well throwing sinking lines for stripers on the
East and West coast. It also handles the heavy crab flies for
permit and monster bones. In the Pacific Northwest and Alaska
the rod has proven to be the tough enough to cast heavy flies on
super fast sinking lines and can beat salmon in a hurry. It has
a fast action. The rod is designed to throw medium to very large
flies.

casting from a float tube or pontoon boat. It has a medium fast
action. The rod is designed to throw small to large flies.
