Echo2 Freshwater fly rods were designed by Tim
Rajeff to be the ultimate tools for chasing trout. Each
Freshwater Rod features the ultimate in
componentry--friction free titanium coated SIC stripping
guides, maple reel seats with nickel coated barrels and
hoods, a beautiful wine colored blank finish, and high
grade cork handle. Knowing that beauty is only skin deep,
Tim Rajeff designed each rod with its own specific power
and action in order to provide you with the best tool for
the job. Other manufacturers utilize a single action across
an entire range of rods, which is just downright silly. To
further allow you to fine tune the actions of Echo2
rods, each rod comes with 2 tips; an "A" tip for
accuracy and a "D" tip for distance.
The Echo2 Saltwater rods feature
top of the line components; high grade
cork handles, extra hard stripper guides
with "illusion plasma coating system" in
titanium coated frames, hard chrome snake
guides, and a deep blue gloss finish. The
#12 has a unique removable EVA foam
fighting grip for really putting the pressure
on. Poor Moby doesn't stand a chance.

A Tale of Two Tips, A.D.
The Accuracy tip was made for, well… accuracy. To
quote Tim, “The accuracy tip is softer, which allows
the rod to load with less line out the rod for times
when you are starting with the fly in your hand. The
accuracy tip also helps people who have smoother
casting strokes because they can feel the rod load
sooner in the stroke and help them take full
advantage of the rods overall power.” This is the tip
you’ll use when fishing flats, or making quick casts to
moving fish.
The Distance tip is stiffer. This is the perfect tip to
use for bringing sinking lines to the surface, for
throwing longer lines, and for people with a more
aggressive casting stroke. Because it is stiffer it
forces the butt to load sooner in the stroke giving the
rod a more modest feel.
Another bonus is if you do have an accident with one
of the tips, you have a spare ready to go.
Stop by and try these rods.

* The Echo2 9’6”/10’ #5 features two tips of different lengths, allowing
the rod to switch between a 9’6” and 10’. What was going on in Tim Rajeff’
s mind when he decided to create a rod with two different length tips? Tim
wanted to give people looking for more distance and or people who are
sitting close to the water more ways to skin a cat. On days where there is
limited wind you can use the longer tip to take full advantage of the line
lifting and distance that a 10 ft. rod delivers. When the wind gets nasty
and waving 10ft. rods in the wind is not your cup of tea (beer) switch tips
and use the shorter one.
