Last night’s livestream featuring was a riot! If weren’t able to tune in, Lance tied two great dries you should have in your box for the upcoming season. Along the way we shared a ton of laughs and possibly even started a band 😂

Huge thanks to lance for sitting in the hot seat and sharing his knowledge. Big thanks to everyone who tuned in, the support is amazing.

You can rewatch the entire livestream over on our YouTube page [LINK IN BIO]. Also stay tuned, we’ll chop these patterns into individual videos with material lists when we get a chance.

“Wow…what is this thing?”

“It’s so light I feel like I’m holding a five-weight.”

“Really? I thought it would cost way more.”

That’s what we’ve consistently heard putting this rod in anglers hands the past few weeks. Designed to cast large flies quickly and accurately, it’s almost like they had Midwest trout & bass anglers in mind…

Echo’s 84-B might be the new king of budget streamer sticks.
