Discover the ultimate fiberglass tool for targeting salmon, steelhead, and large sea trout with the ECHO FIBERGLASS SPEY 12'0"/365cm #7 Flyfishing rod.
Anglers all over have been asking us to bring back those slower, smoother tokens of the past, the Echo Fiberglass Spey rods. Tim took his time with the designs on the new versions, appropriately, and gave us a rod that effectively couples the benefits of glass with modern casting techniques and lines. And while the rods are a little more Tom Waits than Louis Armstrong now, they are 100% fun.
Tim used S2 glass and increased blank diameters with thinner walls to improve rod recovery and lower the blank weight. This provides increased performance without sacrificing the “fun” of glass, and allows anglers to more effectively fish short spey heads. By using rod lengths on the shorter end of the two-hand rod spectrum, the new Echo Fiberglass Spey rods feel crisper and generate more line speed without sacrificing the “why is my handle flexing?” feel of traditional glass spey rods. Additionally, S2 glass fibers have increased elongation compared to graphite, which allows the angler to maintain maximum pressure on fish without worrying about pulling the hooks or snapping tippet.
Built with premium S2 fiberglass, this rod combines unmatched flexibility and durability to handle powerful fish with ease. Perfectly tuned for anglers pursuing these iconic species, it offers exceptional sensitivity for detecting subtle takes and precise control for mastering your casting technique. Whether you're swinging flies for steelhead, chasing salmon in swift currents, or pursuing trophy sea trout, the ECHO GLASS SPEY adapts effortlessly to the challenge. With its timeless design and superior craftsmanship, this rod is an essential companion for any dedicated angler.
Rajeff Sports would like your ECHO experience to be a good one and we ask that you take care of your equipment with the following regular maintenance:
Try to keep sand and dirt out of the ferrules. Occasionally use a few drops of any reel oil or grease on the reel seat threads to keep it operating smoothly. Ski wax can also be used on the ferrules if needed to ensure a proper fit.
Do not use tape on your ferrules.
Action:Fast action rods feature softer tips than medium action rods and provide a ‘stiffer’ feel. Fast action rods excel in the hands of anglers with more aggressive casting strokes and greater stroke control. Medium action rods are ideal for anglers with more fluid casting strokes and have a larger ‘sweet spot’ for a wider range of casting strokes. Consistently throwing a tailing loop? Your rod’s action may not be a good fit to you and your casting stroke.
Power:A rod’s power is its resistance to flexing under load. Powerful rods are ‘beefier’ through the bottom half, generate higher line speeds, and are more adept at keeping big fish pinned. Delicate rods are more presentation-oriented, protect light tippet, and are a better choice for picky fish.
