I will have most of the Echo Glass switch and Spey rods (and some single hand trout rods too) available for Demo at the Golden Gate Angling and Casting Club (GGACC) ponds on Saturday Feb 28. I will have the rods on the rack down in front of the club house.
I plan to be at the ponds from around 9 AM until afternoon, when Tim Rajeff will stop by to pick up the rods.
The rods are lined with the appropriate weight Rage heads but you can bring your own lines to cast on them. I plan on testing several of the rods with midbelly lines such as the Ballistic Vector.
I have cast the 7 wt & 8 wt Speys and these rods are definitely not your Dad's (or Grandad's) fiberglass. The rods are not slow and not soft. The recovery is excellent. The 8 wt is very powerful and the 7 wt is slightly faster and casts Skagits with authority. I did not feel that I had to modify my casting stroke in order to cast these rods. Can't wait to try the 6 wt and the switches.
Price point of less than $300 is hard to beat.
See you at the ponds.
