Looking for the ultimate premium versatile streamer rod? The Echo Streamer X 9' (274cm) #7 weight delivers exceptional performance - the top series in-between that can do larger flies well, whilst still being fun and effective for smaller stuff.
What makes the Echo Streamer X special?
The Echo Streamer X represents the pinnacle of Echo's streamer rod design - a top series specialist rod (same level as Trout X) with premium performance that rivals the world's finest streamer rods. At approximately 120 grammes, it's designed as the versatile in-between - powerful enough for larger streamers, yet refined enough for smaller patterns.

Why choose the 7-weight as your streamer rod?
The 7-weight is the versatile streamer specialist - more delicate than an 8-weight for smaller streamers and fun fishing, yet powerful enough for larger flies and bigger fish.

What can you use the Echo Streamer X 7-weight for?
This top-series rod excels across European waters - streamer fishing for trout on Scottish rivers and reservoirs, sea trout with moderate to large flies, large wild brown trout, smaller pike with moderate streamers, fishing both larger flies and smaller patterns, moderate-sized bunny-strip streamers, conehead-weighted patterns, and any situation where you need premium versatile streamer performance. It's the top Echo versatile streamer specialist.
How does Streamer X compare to Trout X?
The Streamer X is the same top series level as Trout X - premium components, refined feel, exceptional performance - but specifically designed for streamer fishing.
