THE FULL MEAL
ECHO ION XL – ROD
Saltwater-grade rods in this price category are usually better utilized as a coat hanger than a fishing tool. The Ion XL series does not fit that mold. Featuring a remarkably low swing-weight and a more forgiving action, the Ion XL is equally at home stripping flesh flies as it is dropping a merkin to a tailing permit. All models feature salt corrosion-resistant componentry.
FEATURES:
- Four piece travel design
- Action: Med Fast to Fast
- Tube: Fabric-covered rod case & sock
- Guides: Oversized stripping guides
- Grips: Features 2 grip styles
- Reel Seat: Wood insert seat for standard models, black anodized seat on saltwater (S) models
- Warranty: Echo Lifetime Warrant
LAMSON LIQUID – REEL
How much of a reel at this price can LAMSON make here in the U.S.? Quite a lot as it turns out, and it’s a good mix. These high quality castings are imported, but the components critical to the drag system are CNC-machined here in the U.S. Liquid reels are assembled in Boise alongside our highest priced reels. No other $100 reel can boast this much U.S. content and quality oversight. These are the ultimate low cost reel with high quality componentry.
- Format: Large Arbor
- Materials: Pressure Cast Aluminum Frame and Spool
- Finish: Polyurethane Case and Spool
- Drag: Sealed Conical Drag
- 50% US Manufactured, 100% Idaho Built
