Echo PIN Fly Rod

Float fishing is a game of distance, control, and head-in-the-game-patience; Echo's PIN Fly Rod is built for anglers who spend their days managing all three. Designed as a forgiving yet capable medium-fast action float rod, the PIN makes it easy to launch heavy PNW-style float rigs long distances while retaining the backbone needed to drive solid hook sets far downstream.

At 13 feet, the PIN excels at long-distance mending and line control, offering excellent balance that stays comfortable through full days on the water. Whether you’re covering broad runs, managing variable currents, or settling into one of those marathon sessions Echo affectionately calls “Mondays,” this rod delivers dependable performance without unnecessary complexity.

Blank

Medium-Fast Action Graphite Blank – The Echo PIN’s blank is tuned for smooth loading and controlled recovery, making it forgiving enough to cast heavy float setups efficiently while retaining the backbone required for long-distance hook sets. At 13 feet, the rod excels at line control, extended mends, and managing complex drifts in moving water.

The matte army green finish keeps the rod low-profile and glare-free, reinforcing its utility-forward design.

Guides

Black H-Frame Ceramic Single-Foot Guides – Durable, lightweight, and smooth under load, the Black H-Frame Ceramic Guides reduce friction during long casts and protect line when managing extended drifts. Their single-foot design helps keep overall swing weight down for better balance across full days on the water.

Reel Seat

Black Anodized Aluminum Reel Seat – Simple, durable, and corrosion-resistant, the anodized aluminum reel seat locks your reel in securely and holds up to wet conditions and repeated use.

Rod Tube

Fabric-Covered Rod Case with Sock – The PIN includes a protective rod sock and a fabric-covered rod tube for convenient transport and storage, making travel and daily use straightforward and h-free.

Warranty

The Echo Lifetime Warranty – As of December 2025, Echo backs the PIN with their lifetime warranty for the original owner, covering defects in materials and workmanship. Accidental damage and misuse fall outside of Echo's standard warranty coverage, but may be eligible for service through Echo’s repair program.
