Echo River Glass Fly Rod
Anglers fish glass for a long list of reasons. At the top of the list are more easily feeling the rod load and the superior shock absorption of glass fibers. For 2019, Echo compiled three years of fiberglass experience into the new River Glass series, offered in lengths to cover the widest variety of freshwater fisheries. The rods are available in either Glacial Green (GG) or Seductive Caramel (SC) color to help add a bit more smile that wasn’t there when you fished your stiffer graphite rods.

The rod feels solid and responsive in the water. I noticed better feedback when casting and reeling, especially in windy conditions. The Glacial Green color looks great on the water and stands out without being flashy.

I switched from graphite to glass for better durability. The rod handles heavy strikes well and doesn’t bend easily. It’s a reliable choice for daily use in lakes and streams.

The Seductive Caramel color is a nice touch. It adds a warm, appealing look that makes the rod stand out in the field. Performance is excellent for both finesse and stronger presentations.
