Whether you're using them with one hand or two, spey casting or overhead casting, switch rods have become an important tool for people who trout and salmon fish. Bobber fly anglers love the light weight and shorter length, sea trout, salmon and steelhead anglers like the ability to fish in tight places with two hands. With a crisp action and modest power the ECHO SR Rods maintain the load during all styles of spey casting. With models ranging from 10' 6" to 10' 10" they are perfect two hand length but are not beyond chucking with one hand when needed. New to the family is the 3106 (10' 6" #3), a true baby Switch for trout fishing. The family of SR rods will make you smile just putting them together.
