Echo SR Switch Rods

Echo SR Switch Rods

$329.99

There is no finer switch rod for the money. The Echo SR is crisp but easy to cast, has tons of power, and is equally at home doing Skagit-style casts on the river in the morning and bombing mega overhead casts off the beach in the afternoon. Plus it is a great looking rod! You won’t be disappointed.
