    Echo2 7 wt. 12'4'' Scandinavian Spey Rod

    Review: Echo2 7 wt. 12'4'' Scandinavian Spey Rod

    I got this rod new for an outstanding deal, and got to use it last week on New York's Salmon River. It is a med. to med-fast spey rod, perfect for steelhead. One of the great features is that it comes in a hard cordura case, and with TWO tips. One is for "Accuracy", and the other for "Distance". This makes the rod either med. or med-fast. Comes with a lifetime warranty.

    I brought many steelhead to net with this rod and enjoy it a lot. It is a great setup for a Great Lakes rod. While I used a tradition "spey cast", it can also throw regular one-handed casts with relative ease.

    I initially wanted a higher-end rod, but due to two reasons, this rod works fine. 1. I wanted this rod for steelheading, which usually entails enduring severe weather conditions. Simply put, knowind the terrain I was going to be in, I needed a rod that I wouldn't be afraid to break, scratch, etc. 2. The higher-end rods are getting ridiculously expensive, and this rod I got on the world's largest internet auction for a great deal, approximately 1/3 of it's retail value. While I strongly support our local shops, like HRO, at rare times I seek the internet for deals like this.

    I believe the retail for this rod is in the $369.00 region. The Two-tip feature is unique, and something I know will come in handy at just the right moment. At full price, I would consider this rod.

    FYI, this rod is discontinued. I also say two thumbs up. Although I found it a bit heavy, it out casted my ticrx big time. I would buy one if I found it cheap enough.

    Re: Echo2 7 wt. 12'4'' Scandinavian Spey Rod

    hey dave ,nice to hear from you on here .I have the nine weight echo for salmon (chinook ) I like it alot ! it is a bit to weild a nine weight but ,it is much better then a single hand nine weight ,I got it for 260 on a deal .I like that they come with the two tips as well .I havent tried the seven weight ,im about to move up to a behula seven weight ,for deschutes summer and fall steelhead .
    you really would call these rods scandi rods ,because they are short for spey rods .Real spey rods start at about fourteen feet ,with the intro of scandi heads it has become much easier to cast .Rio is behind compared to airflo .
    Airflo offers more weight ratio lines rio has cheaters and if you ask me ,there is enough stuff involved that i dont need to add more to the line .Cheaters dont even work for rods under fourteen feet .So i would go with airflo in the fact that you can go up in weight .For summer fishing the guys are switching to scandi compacts here ,with fifteen foot leaders ,that is for the deschutes you can add poly leaders for sink or floating .On the deschutes you use slow sink intermediate tips ,cause the steelhead hit on top on the deschutes except for in the middle of the day when the sun is high ,then you fish deep!it is really looked down on here to fish and indicator on a spey rod .
    fish on ,I caught a 100 pound sturgon on 20lb test!
