*1The new Echo 84-B Fly Rod is likely to be of great interest to predator and streamer enthusiasts out there. Especially fly anglers looking for a sturdy, slightly shorter rod to generate fast line speeds and efficiently cast bushy, hefty flies even in windy conditions will find what they're looking for with the Echo 84-B!
The 84-B is Tim Rajeff's answer to the need for a rod that can accurately cast large flies under adverse conditions. The rod was developed with bass anglers in mind and has been extensively tested on smallmouth and largemouth bass. In this type of fishing, large flies often need to be precisely presented in tight and hard-to-reach spots. And that's exactly what this rod excels at, which should not only delight bass anglers but also predator fishing enthusiasts in general. Its length and action also make the 84-B an excellent rod for fishing in small streams with streamers, in windy conditions, or from a boat. Quick line pickup and minimal false casting make this rod the ultimate tool for all predator species. Additionally, the 84-B can be perfectly paired with intermediate or sinking lines.
The construction of the rod reflects exactly this type of fishing. The deep olive-colored blank with its crisp action is built with sturdy snake guides and forward-facing stripping guides with SiC inserts, which favor casting with thicker predator lines and support a more aggressive double haul casting style. The high-quality full-wells cork grip and robust aluminum reel seat with double locking nuts complete the overall picture perfectly.
In short: A great addition to Echo's rod lineup with excellent value for money. The rod is characterized by its precise casting of large flies, even under the most challenging conditions, whether targeting local river bass or peacock bass in the tropical jungle. We recommend using a short-headed predator line with a more aggressive taper to fully utilize the blank's advantages.
