New for 2008 is a series of two-hand rods designed by Dec Hogan, Tim Rajeff and a handful of other spey-casting samurai. Each rod in this family has been tuned, dialed and tweaked to perfection; Dec worked hard to ensure that each rod has the perfect balance of power and action. Nothing says "Ahhhhhhhh" like casting a well made spey rod, and the new Dec Hogan series of Echo two handed rods is here to elicit much moaning.
Each rod features a full flex, classical spey action designed for throwing Skagit heads and standard length spey lines. The trimmin's include a graphite pearlescent finish, carbon-fibre reel seat, and composite cork tips on the handle.
The Echo 13’0” #7 was designed as a heavy summer steelhead rod or a light winter rod. It handles larger flies and medium size tips with ease. It's great for steelhead, Atlantic Salmon, and Coho.
