ECHO CARBON XL

While our main-stem tailwaters around Casper require heavy setups, our surrounding mountains are filled with smaller, glassy side-channels and high-country creeks that call for a delicate touch. The ECHO Carbon XL is a favorite among local guides for technical dry fly fishing because its smooth, medium-fast action allows you to drop a tiny midge or a trailing Poxyback PMD Mercer onto flat water without making a splash. Don't let the "light-duty" label fool you, though—this rod has plenty of progressive lower-section power to handle unexpected morning winds when you need to drive a loop tight to the bank. Stop by our brick-and-mortar storefront downtown to test-cast one on the grass, and don't forget it's backed by Echo’s lifetime warranty if you happen to slip on a slick river boulder!
