NEW FOR 2017! Some things are just faster than others: Usain Bolt. ECHO E.P.R.. Designed by Pat Ehlers, this new stick has a super fast tip to load easily at short distances and the most powerful bottom half of any ECHO rod we have ever made to insure you will never run out of gas when casting into the wind. Going after fish that weigh more than you do? The E.P.R. is ready to tip the scales.
Action vs Power Comparison
The Action vs. Power matrix is used for comparison between ECHO rod models. Utilizing this chart, you’ll be able to choose an ECHO rod that best fits you and your personal casting stroke. The vertical axis indicates the rod’s power, while the horizontal axis indicates the rod’s action. In simple terms, single-hand rod action is derived from the top half of the rod, while power is derived from the bottom half.
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.
Rajeff Sports would like your ECHO experience to be a good one and we ask that you take care of your equipment with the following regular maintenance:
Wash all components with warm freshwater after each days use in saltwater. Pay extra attention to the space where the guides meet the blank and the metal parts of the reel seat. Try to keep sand and dirt out of the ferrules. Occasionally use a few drops of any reel oil or grease on the reel seat threads to keep it operating smoothly. Paraffin wax can also be used on the ferrules if needed to ensure a proper fit.
Do not use tape on your ferrules. If you do we’ll come steal all your bacon and PBR.
Reel Seat: Wood insert seat for standard models, black anodized seat on saltwater (S) models
Warranty: Echo Lifetime Warranty
Saltwater-grade rods in this price category are usually better utilized as a coat hanger than a fishing tool. The Ion XL series does not fit that mold. Featuring a remarkably low swing-weight and a more forgiving action, the Ion XL is equally at home stripping flesh flies as it is dropping a merkin to a tailing permit. All models feature salt corrosion-resistant componentry.

Nothing's easy about coaxing musky with a fly. With massive tactical demands, the battle is downright physical. Because your rotator cuff just isn't enough, IMX-PROm feature "allday" actions that ooze shoulder-saving sweetness. Mega-durable cloud cork top/bottom grips keep both hands busy long after everyone else is warming theirs back at the cabin. Partnered with professional guide and Elite Ambassador, Chris Willen, our motivation to forge the most advanced tools for modern musky angling match your intense drive for ultimate success on the water.
CONDUIT CORE Traditionally, as the blank diameter increases, so does the total amount of material used. This was the only way of ensuring strength/durability in the bottom half of the rod. Conduit Core technology removes excess wraps of graphite and replaces them with a proprietary material that's of equal strength, but dramatically lighter in weight. Casters exert less energy to move the rod, increasing the efficiency of total energy required to manipulate the line when casting, mending, and animating flies.
o High-modulus graphite construction o Balanced swing weight + incredible durability o Multi-Taper Design reinforces potential stress points within the blank while reducing unnecessary graphite material
Features of the IMX-PRO Musky Fly Rod:
o High-modulus graphite construction o Balanced swing weight; incredible durability o Multi-Taper Design reinforces potential stress points within the blank while reducing unnecessary graphite material o Chrome single-foot guides o Chrome stripper guides (3 total for increased durability) o Cloud Composite "Magnum Grip" o Custom aluminum up-locking reel seat o Tube and cloth rod bag o Handcrafted in Woodland, Washington
The NRX+ is designed to level the playing field and conquer edgy environmental factors such as sustained wind or complex hydraulics so as to peak the angler's productivity. With a primary focus of maximizing versatility, these adaptable actions improve angler capability and expand tactical opportunity in complex fishing situations.
The NRX+ is rolled with the most advanced compound taper construction to date. It provides the power, line speed, and loop stability expected from modern fast-action rods, without compromising “feel” and finesse in the short game. This means, regardless of casting distance or difficulty, NRX+ empowers anglers with confidence-boosting control in difficult situations.
Features of the NRX+ Freshwater Fly Rod:
• Single-foot recoil guides • Titanium SiC stripper guides • Hook keeper (Line #: 4-6) • Micro full wells, AAA grade cork grip • Custom aluminum reel seat with walnut hardwood insert (Models: 490-4, 590-4, & 595-4) • Custom aluminum reel seat with fighting butt (4100-4, 5100-4, 690-4, & 6100-4) • Aluminum rod tube with cloth rod bag • Handcrafted in Woodland, Washington
Four-season speyanglers face a horde of tricky obstacles. Wildly fluctuating water levels and clarity, alternating directional wind, and complex hydraulics are just a few of the familiar factors two-hand casters must regularly overcome. Successfully securing a hook-up onthe swing is difficult enough. Take control, and conquer common variables with balanced fishing tools forged to amplify effectiveness in volatile fishing environments.
Regardless of line system used, these adaptable actions were developed to boost performance, enhance angler ability, and maximize versatility. Rolled with our most advanced compound taper construction to date, NRX+ SPEY provides the power, line speed, and loop stability expected from modern two-hand rods, without compromising "feel" and finesse through each stage of the casting cycle.
DYNAMIC RECOVERY TECHNOLOGY
Dynamic Recovery Technology is a blended system of several elements. Our all-new Mega Modulus+ graphite matrix and GL8 resin system, combined with the industry's most advanced compound taper construction process, creates crisp actions with smooth, rapid recovery. The key to achieving these performance characteristics is a reimaging of our proprietary Multi-Taper Design technology. Traditionally used to enhance durability and swing weight, the G. Loomis design team developed a method of applying a similar process to improve loading efficiency and feedback. This widens the power and recovery "sweet spot", providing performance with feel regardless of casting distance.
Mega Modulus+ matrix is 15% lighter than original NRX, improving overall balance and feel, and limits casting fatigue
Smooth, rapid recovery,allowing casters to develop stable loops with less effort
GL8 resin possesses the same strength and impact resistance as past resin systems with less material. This reduces overall weight, and ultimately, limits fatigue
Materials dampen quickly, delivering a crisp, positive feel in handFEATURES
The Ambush Clear Head adds a new dimension to Ambush lines – stealth. Now a fly fisherman can enjoy all the roll casting, Spey, Skagit, switch and Scandi style casting advantages of the ambush floating fly line with the added benefit of a clear, 20' intermediate sinking head. Intermediate sink rate 1.25 to 1.75 ips. The Ambush just got sneakier!
New: Tri-D Line ID (Laser Printed Line ID on line)
Notes:
Gary Sandstrom, designer of the Ambush Line, talks about why he created it:
Originally designed on the Deschutes River in Oregon for fishing in areas with very little back cast room. I wanted a line that would load the rod with only 10-20 feet of line out, turn over large bead head flies with an indicator and shoot 30 feet with one roll cast. The first lines sizes, 4-6 (195-235 grains) were primarily for the trout guys. As switch rods became more popular as a tool for trout and light steelhead fishing, requests for larger sizes were answered with Ambush lines being made in sizes 7- 10 (266-400 grains). The tricky part in trying to line switch rods is some manufactures rate these rods as a true single hand, while others rate them as spey rods, both with the same line designation. Typically a good starting point for switch rods is an Ambush 8 weight (290 grains) will load a 5 weight switch rod, Ambush 9 for a 6wt switch and a Ambush 10 for a 7wt switch (rated for spey application). If the rod is a true single hand, then just match the same Ambush line weight to the rod line weight. Of course, the best thing to do is visit your local fly shop and see if they have some sample lines to cast or attend a spey event with your rod and cast the lines on the water. The next production of Ambush lines, the 11-14 weights (450-600 grains) are for the double handed casters that wanted a line with a very short head for fishing in really tight areas. They require a very short casting stroke and work best with the shorter 11-12 ½ foot rods typically used in fishing smaller rivers or big rivers with little or no room for a D-loop. These lines have a slightly longer head to accommodate the extra length in the rod. What I really like about the Ambush lines is that you can attach either a long mono leader, a poly leader of any density or a heavy chunk of T-14 and the line will still cast well. Another nice feature of Ambush lines is the integrated shooting line to head (no loops to hang up when casting short or when landing a fish ) and the cool two tone color, designed specifically for easy detection of the head/shooting line junction in low light conditions.

Garry Sandstrom
