Echo Shadow II Rod 10′ 3WT

Designed by Tim and Team USA’s Pete Erickson, these powerful, moderate- to faster-action “long-light” European-style nymphing rods deliver critical feel and line control with an added bonus: They’ll actually cast a dry fly when your feeling dirty. An optional competition package (sold separately $74.99) includes two 6″ extensions that add extra reach, either 6″ or 12″, a screw-in fighting butt and counterweight washers that fine-tune balance. The ultimate fishing competition rod, bar none.
