Two Handers Designed For Overhead Casting
A rod designed for overhead two-hand casting
The first of its kind: A two-hand rod specifically built for overhead casting. While most all two-hand rods are built with spey casting in mind, the Boost Beach’s unique design is made with beach casters in mind.
Throw tight loops with less effort
Spey rods are designed to load deep in to the blank to properly launch an anchored spey cast – the Boost Beast bucks this trend in favor of an action and power balance that allows for high line speed, tight loop casts using a lot less effort than a traditional two-hander.
Salmon, perch and halibut beware!
Whether stalking the lahontan cutthroat of Pyramid lake, stripers in Montauk, or beach cruising halibut in Southern California: there’s no beach fishery this rod won’t shine.
You asked and we delivered. The Boost Beach was designed for overhead casting to surf-dwelling species on both coasts. Halibut, perch, stripers and SRCs beware: the Boost Beach allows anglers to hit bigger casts with less effort than ever before. Designed to load at 230 grain lines (6wt), 265 grain lines (7wt), 300 grains lines (8wt), and 330-375 grains (9wt).

Action vs Power Comparison
The Action vs. Power matrix is used for comparison between ECHO rod models. Utilizing this chart, you’ll be able to choose an ECHO rod that best fits you and your personal casting stroke. The vertical axis indicates the rod’s power, while the horizontal axis indicates the rod’s action. In simple terms, single-hand rod action is derived from the top half of the rod, while power is derived from the bottom half.
Action:
Fast action rods feature softer tips than medium action rods and provide a ‘stiffer’ feel. Fast action rods excel in the hands of anglers with more aggressive casting strokes and greater stroke control. Medium action rods are ideal for anglers with more fluid casting strokes and have a larger ‘sweet spot’ for a wider range of casting strokes. Consistently throwing a tailing loop? Your rod’s action may not be a good fit to you and your casting stroke.
Power:
A rod’s power is its resistance to flexing under load. Powerful rods are ‘beefier’ through the bottom half, generate higher line speeds, and are more adept at keeping big fish pinned. Delicate rods are more presentation-oriented, protect light tippet, and are a better choice for picky fish.
