Echo Trout X - Rods are typically designed around casting at 30′-50′ distances – It was time to think outside of that box. Using Echo's Variable Sweet Spot technology, they developed a line of five unique rods that load and cast at any distance. A rod designed from scratch with the advanced caster in mind – to maximize the rod’s wide range of optimal casting distance.

To help the rod’s casting efficiency Echo did what they could to make the Trout X rods light to help casting efficiency and to help protect light tippet. These rods are produced in a factory that has access to the latest and best carbon fiber material. We used lightweight guides and have done everything we can to shave weight from the rod to improve performance.

The rods are all four piece and a coated with mist green gloss finish. The matching thread color helps the rod blend into the environment and all the snake guides are chrome plated for less friction. SIC stripper guides help improve double haul efficiency and the extended half wells grip with a burl wood real seat so they are beautiful, light, and low maintenance.

Tim Rajeff's thoughts about the Trout X models:

• #3, 7'6": When making shorter casts it is best to use a rod that is not overly stiff so it can load or flex with a small amount of line out the rod tip.
• #4, 8'4": Our “shorter” 4 weight rod has been designed to protect light tippet and function in all but the largest rivers.
• #4, 9': This Trout X rod is the rod we expect you will want to fish spring creeks or super finicky trout on medium to larger rivers.
• #5, 9': Stiff enough to fish streamers, hopper dropper rigs, and indicators in all but the windiest conditions. It is the ½ ton pickup truck of fly rods.
• #6, 9': You grab your six weight when you have wind, need to throw far, are throwing big, heavy flies, or when you are throwing big nymphs + indicator rigs.
