The Carbon XL is designed for anglers of all skill levels who need a well-rounded rod for a variety of fishing applications.
The Carbon XL features a moderate action that excels at everything from dry fly fishing to nymphing and even light streamers without ever feeling heavy or sluggish. The Carbon XL series looks and feels like a rod that should be selling for twice its price!
Echo Carbon XL Euro Nymph Rod 10' 3 wt -
With the growing demand for specialized Euro Nymph rods, the demand for a rod that fits the needs of anglers that are not looking to compete at the national championships has also been growing. We used our extremely popular Carbon XL rod as a tried-and-true foundation to make a rod that met and exceeded the expectations of these anglers.
Competition-style Euro Nymph rods can be so specialized that they aren’t always the right tool for most recreational anglers. By using the Carbon XL’s already versatile design and extending the length to 10′, we produced a rod that is not only capable of anything a trout angler needs, but excels at it.
Perfect for any style of nymphing, dry flies, lake fishing, and more! We took an already great rod, gave it a new tip section as well as a few other upgrades, and made one of our most versatile fishing tools to date.
I've owned the original Echo Carbon for awhile and it was really good, tried out this new XL at a demo day and was really impressed with the improvement since the original and the price stayed the same. Will be buying the new version soon.
