Echo

Base Rod

Whether your game was tag or hide-and-seek, when you were a kid, the base was where you went for safety. The Echo Base Rod is no different—it's the consistent rod you can trust for a solid cast every time. It has a medium-fast action for powerful distance with a forgiving nature, making it easy to graduate your hide-and-seek game to the water. Choosy fish will emerge from their holes for your well-presented fly, and the Base has the power to fight with them once they take the bait. Lower weight rods have a half-wells handle with plenty of grip, while higher weight rods feature a full-wells handle with a fighting butt to give you the leverage you need against large fish. Chrome guides allow line to feed through smoothly, and hold up well against the wear and tear of long-term use. A fabric-covered rod case with a separate sock protect your rod during travel whether you're flying across the country or simply driving to the river.
