Echo Lago Fly Rod
The Echo Lago was purpose-built for stillwater anglers who demand distance, control, and efficiency from a seated position.
Traditional rods often struggle when casting from float tubes, boats, or pontoons. The Lago’s 10’ length and balanced medium-fast action are specifically designed to help keep your backcast off the water while improving line pickup and roll casting — allowing for longer, cleaner deliveries with sinking or floating lines.
A modestly powered tip paired with a firm lower section gives the Lago the versatility to fish a wide range of lake techniques — from long-leader chironomid setups to covering water with sinking lines.
The extended reach also helps maintain depth control and keeps flies in the strike zone longer — a key advantage for stillwater fishing.

I use this rod for fishing from my boat and it’s a game-changer. The backcast stays clean and I can cast much farther without hitting the water. Great for long leader setups and sinking lines.

Felt more control when casting from a float tube. The 10-foot length gives good reach without being too heavy. Works well with both floating and sinking flies.

Perfect for stillwater fishing. The medium-fast action is smooth and responsive. I’ve used it for chironomid setups and it handles the long leader well.
