The Best Rod You Can Buy for Your Money, Period.

When Tim Rajeff started his distribution company in the bright Spring of 2001, he was a man with goals. He wanted to fill a hole. And he wanted to fill it good.

That hole, so to speak, was the lack of quality low priced fly rods and reels. He wasn't thinking an OK rod and reel-he wanted something people would pick up, cast, fish, and say, "WOW!!!"

Thus began the quest to develop a mighty line of fly rods. About a year into the quest, Tim's rod design and fly-casting experience paid off. "The Mighty Rod-Man," we call him. He held forth the final design for all to see, and it's superior performance held us in awe.

The Echo series of rods was built to perform. They cast like the "money" rods, but don't require financial competence to purchase. They're great fly rods for everyone, with beautiful cosmetics and medium-fast to fast actions. Each size rod was specifically designed with it's own unique taper in order to perform best for its specific application.

The Echo fly reels are composite reels built to tight tolerances with an incredible Teflon drag and strong, durable frames. Both reels have large arbor frames, are lightweight, and again are priced considerably lower than competing reels. They've proven themselves on everything from King Salmon to Dorado and have successfully evoked the "WOW!" we've been looking for from fly-fishing fanatics across the continent.

Whether you're a beginner looking to get into the sport, or a seasoned veteran of the fly, Echo fly rods and reels will give you top quality performance without the high-dollar headache.


<div align="center"><em>We consider the</em>

ECHO 7'6" #3 the best 3 weight on the market. This little rod is a "True" 3 weight--with a smooth, even action built to present a three weight line properly to those beautiful brookies and goldens.

    7'6"    3      1       $129.95
The ECHO 8'0" #4 rods mission is to provide a tippet protecting light trout rod. Its medium fast configuration is easy to cast up close and still has enough punch for medium to long casts. At 8'0" it is the perfect balance between a creek / small river rod and a lake / larger river rod.

The ECHO 9'0" #4 is the big brother of the popular 8' #4 rod. New for 2005, this rod is a medium-fast action, medium plus power rod designed to cover a broader range of water than the 8' version. Great for casting drys to finicky trout in rivers or lakes, the 9'#4 rod also works well for most nymphing except for the heaviest of nymphs with the largest of indicators.

The ECHO 9'0" #5 is designed to cover a large range of fishing conditions. It is a medium fast plus action. The combination of power and action delivers a cast up close by employing its light tip-while the high powered butt section can chuck the fly a country mile. Every fishing situation demands a different fly and tactic while every fisherperson has a different casting style and physique-the Echo 9'0" #5 was designed to meet these various needs.

The ECHO 9'0" #5 Ultimate Distance is a special distance competition rod, designed as a fast action, extra stiff 9 foot 5 weight. This ultimate distance rod is designed with a large diameter down locking reel seat and flattened area at the bottom of the cork allowing the caster to slide their hand all the way down toward the reel, increasing the effective rod length.
The Echo ultimate distance rod also has three oversize stripping guides to handle the extra fricition created when double hauling long lines. Finally, a rod specifically designed to cast a 5 weight line farther than any production rod available.

The ECHO 9'0" #6 rod is ready to conquer the challenges of larger fish and longer line. Its action is the same as the #5 but in a stiff # 6 design. People who have fished the #6 for trout love the light tip and steelheaders love the powerful butt section.

The ECHO 9'0" #7 rod is nearing the final steps of design and field-testing. The rod feels light in the hand but is deceptively powerful. It is designed to throw bugs to bass, streamers in rivers as well as take the abuse of flats saltwater fishing. With a medium fast plus action and medium stiff power level it will be a comfortable rod to cast all day.

The design team had to reach deep to come up with a rod that would chuck a mouse to big rainbows, a low water green butt skunk to steelhead and Atlantic salmon , a deerhead frog to some feller with a big mouth and cover a bone from a boat or on foot. The ECHO 9'0" #8 pulls it off!! It is a medium fast plus rod with a medium stiff plus power level. By staying just (and I mean just) below the fast / stiff configuration the ECHO 9'0" #8 can flick a short cast w/o working hard and still drive a cast into a blow. If you are looking for an all around #8 rod stop looking.

The ECHO 9'0" #9 rod was designed with fewer tasks in mind than the #8. It is a fast action stiff rod. Its goal is to load up close and then, with the benefit of a fast / stiff rod, drive a tight loop halfway across the ocean. The target for the 9'0" #9 ECHO was to fish in striper territory w/o missing the need to deliver heavy crabs to tough permit. Clousers and bunker flies need to be cast at higher speed to overcome the laws of gravity and air resistance and the 9'0" #9 ECHO will do so when called upon.

The ECHO 9'0" #10 is the largest of the ECHO family. People who need to throw heavy lines ask for fast stiff rods. The ECHO 9'0" #10 will provide the casting power and raw lifting power you need to cast heavy flies to big Tarpon or wrestling big stripers to the boat. The rod is a medium fast plus action with a stiff power level that can bring big fish to their knees (if they actually had knees). It has a large-diameter fighting butt in anticipation of long hard battles.

If you are on your ass in a tube, or chasing steelhead in skinny water you will love the 10' #6 ECHO rod. It is medium stiff and has a fast action. This combination helps form good loops up close but has plenty of power to launch long casts. The rod is produced from graphite that is designed to handle the stress of landing fish on long rods. All 10' rods come with a full wells grip and a standard fighting butt.

The ECHO 10'0" #7 follows in the footsteps of the #6 rod with a fast action and medium stiff construction. It has the backbone to work larger water with larger flies but still is a favorite of the serious trout fisherman who prefers fishing from a boat. Steelhead fishermen looking for the perfect seven-weight rod need no longer search, this is it!

Bambi meets Godzilla. The ECHO 10'0" #8 rod is a cannon. With big flies, big fish, and long casts in mind the 10 #8 rod has the same fast action but is built with more power than most #8 rods. The extra power comes in handy when stopping big fish on the run. It's thick walled construction ads needed strength to the rod.
