At last, Tim Rajeff is releasing his spey and skagit lines under the ECHO Brand. They will be called:

ECHO Scandi :  a compact length scandi head
ECHO Skagit : a compact length skagit head
ECHO Skagit-intermediate : a compact length skagit intermediate with a short floating section at the rear
ECHO Skagit-mini : a very short skagit head suitable for switch rods
ECHO Storm : a “scandit” type head very easy to cast, excellent in the wind.

These lines will be distributed exclusively by BalticFlyFisher and BalticFlyfisher.DK!

MPR – Spey?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

An MPR-Spey! You’re kidding … uh uh.  As from now its possible to practice Spey casting indoors; just add the MPR Spey Adaptor to your MPR and your “Single Spey, Snake Roll, and Perry Poke” take on a whole new dynamic.

Interested? If you want one, click here or drop us a mail.

Testing, Testing
