Echo Full Spey Rod
Echo Full Spey two handed rods are the most advanced and lightest weight Spey rods Echo has ever built. The 13'0" length is a very versatile length for a steelhead rod that will allow you to fish big and small rivers with both Skagit and Scandi lines. These rods are easy casting rods that are very worthy of the old Pepsi challenge with rods that are twice the price of the Echo Full Spey. The Echo Full Spey is a medium fast action rod that has a ton of "feel" and soul when casting. These rods produce high line speed, tight loops and exceptional accuracy in an easy casting package. The 6130-4 6wt is the summer steelhead rod. The 6wt would also be great for pink salmon! For an all around steelhead rod that would be at home on any summer or winter steelhead river go with the 7130-4 7wt. The 8130-4 8wt is a great winter steelhead rod and a great "light" salmon rod for silvers and chum. Not the best rod for king salmon, but it can handle some pretty big fish. All in all the Echo Full Spey is an exceptional rod at a great price! The Echo Full Spey features an anodized aluminum down locking reel seat, a black blank with copper rod wraps, and comes with a rod tube, rod sock, and Echo's lifetime warranty. More info.

The Hardy Marquis LWT Salmon 2 Reel
The Hardy Marquis LWT Salmon reels have been a staple in the fly fishing world for decades. The updated version of the Marquis Salmon series features new improvements yet remain perfectly at home on modern Spey and rods. The Marquis LWT series reels have been moved back home to England for manufacturing and have received a fantastic face lift. The drag adjustment is better than ever and features a greater range of settings. The spool also features increased porting while the reel maintains classic styling and that all so important Hardy sound. More info.

Scientific Anglers Skagit Floating Head
We've paired our Echo Full Spey outfits with the Scientific Anglers Skagit head that matches perfectly on the Full Spey's. These heads are not like the Skagit heads a lot of us grew up with. These are much more pleasant to cast than the Skagit heads of the past. Advancements in the taper design has made a big difference in the way these feel when casting, and they will cast a wide variety of different weight and length of sink tips much better than ever before.

Scientific anglers Absolute Flat Mono shooting Line
Scientific Anglers Absolute Flat Mono Shooting Line is the best mono shooting on the market in our opinion. It has almost zero stretch unlike other mono lines out there, very minimal memory, and shoots like crazy! Because it is flat, it is actually surprisingly easy to handle. We highly recommend giving SA's Absolute Flat Mono Shooting line a try if you like mono running lines. More info.

Airflo Custom Cut 10 -foot Sink-Tip and 13-foot Sink-Tip
To complete your line setup, we're including two Airflo Custom Cut sink-tips. One sink-tip is cut to 10-feet and is perfect for moderate to shallow water. The second tip is 13-feet and is used for moderate to deep water. Each sink-tip has nicely made loops on each end to easily connect the sink-tip to your Skagit head and so you can quickly add and remove leaders. The sink rate on these tips is 7- to 8-inches per second. More info.
-
Scientific Anglers Backing
Scientific Anglers' backing is very thin, highly durable and the colors are colorfast. We've been using it for years on everything from trout to billfish and haven't run into a single inconsistency. Your outfit will come with the perfect amount backing already loaded onto the reel and attached to your line. We only use the best knots to rig your setup. We use Bimini loop Knot then sealed with glue to connect your backing to your running line. We generally choose a backing color that contrasts your other lines. Let us know if you would prefer a certain color option for your backing. The choices are yellow, orange or white. More info.

Umpqua Perform X HD Salmon and Steelhead Leader - 5-foot
Umpqua Perform X HD Salmon and Steelhead Leaders use a stiffer, more abrasion resistant nylon monofilament with a robust taper for turning over larger flies on either single-hand or Spey setups. Much more powerful than a standard trout leader, the Umpqua Perform X HD Salmon/Steelhead Leaders cast weighted flies better and are better suited to large fish and aggressive grabs in fast, boulder-strewn rivers. The leader already comes with a perfection knot on the butt of the leader and will come in the package already attached to a sink-tip on your reel. Just add fly and go fishing! More info.
