Echo's River Glass Fly Rod is the most delicate, slowest-action rod in their collection. Its medium-fast action feels even more forgiving due to its S-glass material, and gently places flies even over longer casts without disrupting the fish. Chrome snake guides ensure you can move line without fighting friction, enabling longer casts with less power. Hand-built, this rod is a work of art down to the cork reel seat and hand-mixed paint color.

Full Reviews
I bought this rod in a 6'9 3wt for my son along with some larger rods but he wanted this for "smaller water" he loves it and says the medium action and fiberglass gives it a great old school feel, it is perfect for small streams with tight bushes or trees, and he would highly recommend it to anyone looking to pick up a rod for small to medium sized streams. The only thing he said that is even close to bad is he wishes he had got it in a 2 wt, but this is his go to rod for smaller streams.
