ECHO SHADOW X 10'0" / 305 cm #3. weight appx. 85g. - Note: when matching any ECHO Nymph rods to a non-Nymph specialized line, we recommend uplining; eg. for a 3wt rod, use a 4wt line.
ECHO worked with veteran Euro Nymph guru Pete Erickson, 2018 fly fishing world champion Norm Maktima, and expert Mariusz Wrobewski (professor of engiteering Berkley University) to create a rod that is dialed-in to perform at the sport’s highest levels.
By using the most advanced high modulus graphite available to them, ECHO were able to achieve the lightest rod they have ever produced. When you need to feel every nuance happening under the water, having the lightest, most sensitive rod you possibly can is the difference between 1st and 10th place.
Simply put: This is the most challenging project Tim Rajeff and his crew at ECHO have ever completed. They designed a rod that balances sensitivity with hook setting capability to a level that had not before thought possible.
Action:Fast action rods feature softer tips than medium action rods and provide a ‘stiffer’ feel. Fast action rods excel in the hands of anglers with more aggressive casting strokes and greater stroke control. Medium action rods are ideal for anglers with more fluid casting strokes and have a larger ‘sweet spot’ for a wider range of casting strokes. Consistently throwing a tailing loop? Your rod’s action may not be a good fit to you and your casting stroke.
Power:A rod’s power is its resistance to flexing under load. Powerful rods are ‘beefier’ through the bottom half, generate higher line speeds, and are more adept at keeping big fish pinned. Delicate rods are more presentation-oriented, protect light tippet, and are a better choice for picky fish.
