TIM RAJEFF
What do you do when you have a slight hitch in your giddy-up? If you are a two-hand fly fisherman who owns their own rod company you simply create a family of rods that help you cast better. The TR (Tim Rajeff) series of rods have a little more oomph in the bottom half to keep up with his slightly more abrupt power application. The ECHO TR rods will throw tighter loops farther than you ever dreamed possible. Load them up with a Skagit Compact head and they slow down enough to make fishing sink tips a breeze. New to the family for 2014 is the TR-4120 (12' 0" #4). This rod takes an incredible rod series and makes it even better. With rods now available from the new 4 weight to the 14' 0" #9 weight winter cannon. When your friends ask to borrow your ECHO TR, don't do it, you might not get it back.
TR Rods feature:
Four piece travel design
Alignment dots for quick assembly
Premium grade cork upper handle with composite pressure zone at top of the handle
Handle lengths vary with each model
Premium grade cork lower handle with composite pivot knob

Try casting 15' of lead core on the end of your regular Spey line and you'll quickly find its not up to the job - enter the Skagit Compact. Skagit lines were originally developed by the Steelhead rats of the Pacific North West to get flies in front of fish regardless of environment. These short high power heads have the ability to make a cast in tight confined spaces, which often means the difference between success and failure. Perfected under the watchful eye of Tom Larimer, you can understand how excited we are about the Skagit Compact.
Tom guides the mighty rivers of Oregon and Washington, so required a series of lines that allowed his clients to quickly get the hang of fishing heavy level sink tips and big articulated flies. As with any line the shorter the head the more critical the weight. By refining the taper and length of the Skagit Compacts from 23 to 27 feet depending on head weight. We've created 15 models from 360 to 810 grains in 30 grain increments that ensure you'll be able to find the perfect match for your favourite rod. So, just add a running line, a sink tip and your good to go.

Cocoons are the only sunglasses in the world that will completely isolate your eyes from the elements. The collection features patented designs that deliver 360 of Advanced UV Protection and are available in a range of styles and sizes that can be worn over prescription eyewear or as conventional sunglasses. After wearing Cocoons for a short period of time, your eyes will begin to relax. The polarized UV400 front and side lenses treat incoming light, eliminating distracting glare and allowing you to focus on the task at hand. The patented frames protect your eyes from all angles, blocking sunlight, UV, glare, wind, rain and airborne debris. Sizing Guide: Measure the maximum width and height of your prescription frame to find the pair of Cocoons that fits best. Advanced UV Protection Cocoons deliver Advanced UV Protection (AVP). AVP guarantees the performance of not only the lenses, but the entire frame design. Sunglasses featuring AVP design parameters will completely isolate the eyes, protecting from the harmful effects of the sun and the elements. Advanced UV Protection ensures that your eyes are safely protected within a cocoon of filtered light, allowing them to remain relaxed and focused on the task at hand. Polarizationn Polarization is similar to a chemical Venetian blind, rearranging light and allowing you to see "through" harsh glare and reflection. 100%% polarized lenses are the only truly effective way of eliminating glare. Water, fog, rain, snow and early morning dew, have reflective properties, which enhance reflected glare. All Cocoon sunglasses feature polarized lenses. When wearing polarized lenses, eyestrain is reduced, allowing your eyes to remain relaxed and focused on the task at hand. The elimination of glare provides a tranquil "cocoon" for your eyes, improving visual acuity and enhancing depth perception. Cocoons polarized lenses are also scratch resistant and deliver complete UV A&B protection. Cocoon lenses are optically correct.

Tip: Try and match the weight of your spey rod to the weight of the reel for balance. The weight does not need to be exact as there will be fly line backing, running line, and fly line on the reel. The fly line will be off the reel when casting with Short Skagit Lines.
The Airflo Skagit Intermediate is a new concept in Skagit casting that will change the game of swinging flies for anadromous fish. By building a line with a short floating rear section coupled with an intermediate body, we took the ease of casting a Skagit head and combined it with the effectiveness of an intermediate Scandi. Although we designed it originally for steelhead anglers in the Great Lakes, it's quickly becoming a viable tool for West Coast steelhead and salmon, and Atlantic salmon fishing worldwide.
I use this line in the winter when the water is high and the surface water is fast - this line slows the swing down as it allows the link to get below the river's surface turbulence. It also allows your tip to get down deeper. - Jeff Layton
Pure Skagit Lazar Running Line by OPST is the slickest running line out there. This is the line for those of us who love to launch a cast, sit back, maybe eat a sandwich while the line rushes out of the guides and pulls line off the reel as it comes tight. Lazar Line is hydrophobic, extremely durable, consistent over a broad range of temperatures, and virtually impervious to memory. It features a slight, calculated stretch that allows for extremely sleek and strong knots. Don't like Skagit casting? This stuff will rock with your Scandi head as well. We searched far and wide for the perfect running line and knew we could do better than what was out there. Take your casting enjoyment to a whole new level with Pure Skagit Lazar Line!
I switched over to using this shooting line. It is almost friction free and casts a mile. It comes out of the water with very little drag. This line is thinner than most so go with the 35lb, or if you want a little more to hang onto the 40lb. It will add 10 ft to your casts easily. - Jeff Layton
If you are having a hard time with running/shooting line slipping out from beneath your finger when casting. Learn to cast with two fingers holding the line. Works even in the rain.

RIO's iFlight is the latest addition in the arsenal of heads for the Skagit fly fisher. The short, powerful head has an 8ft long highly visible floating back end that is easy to track during the swing, and can be mended for total fly control. The unique clear camo intermediate front section is a fantastic asset for when extra depth is needed, in strong current and also on windy days, or when a slower swing is needed.
The iFlight is the best choice for long distance casting on big rivers where your fly has to be fished at extra depth.
Powerful front end casts fast sinking tips and large flies
Slow sinking intermediate tip for deeper and slower presentations
ID printed rear loop for fast head recognition
Most Unique feature: The iFlight Skagit Spey shooting head is clearly distinguished from other Spey heads by the front end of the head (approximately 14 ft) that has an Intermediate sink rate of about 1.5 inches per second. the back 8 ft of this head is a black floating line that enhances mending of the front portion of the Intermediate head.
Application:The iFlight Skagit is a great choice for achieving deeper swings with Spey rods and is a surprisingly effective tool to fish standing waters with beach rods. The Intermediate front of the head gets just under the surface and eliminates wind drift. The Intermediate front of the head is also particularly useful if surface river turbulence interferes with the fly's swing.
Compatible tips: These iFlight heads are meant ONLY for use with sink tips of various rates, not for floating tips.
Line Taper: This Skagit head is a short, powerful Spey Head with a floating rear 8' section integrated with an intermediate front section.
Sink rate: This line has an 8 ft floating rear section and a 1.5 ips per second front section on the head.
Line weights available: the Rio iFlight Skagit heads are available in line wts. from 450 gr. to 750 gr.
Overall/Head Length: Approximately 22 ft to 23 ft
Line Color: the intermediate-sink tip section is a clear/translucent camouflage color; the rear 8 ft portion of the head is a high-vis orange to facilitate current detection and improve mending ability.
Line floating properties: Mixed: floating head with intermediate tip.
Welded Loops: The front and back ends of the iFlight Skagit Head fly lines deliver welded loops to ease the process of quick rigging to attaching sink tips.
Designed for a smooth transition with dig. 2.5ft of intermediate material and 7.5ft of T-sink smooths out the cast and keeps you in the zone longer. Looped at both ends for easy transitions.

Arx by Waterworks Lamson is a reel built with purpose; Spey or switch casting a variety of lines with maximum line control and reliability. The continuing evolution of Spey and Scandi lines, shooting heads, flat mono, etc. demand a reel that can help prevent line snags while retaining the high performance you’ve come to expect from Waterworks Lamson. Arx has a full cage frame that encapsulates the spool to prevent line from escaping or snagging in critical areas. Normally a configuration like this would do a good job at preventing line fouling, but would preclude palming the reel. Arx is carefully milled on the bottom third of the reel to expose a functional palming section. Even the drag knob has been designed to provide optimal grip without exposing a portion of the reel to line fouling.
Our precision-machined, aluminum bobbin spools fit the Norvise Bobbin. Many fly tiers using a variety of working threads find it economical to simply change spools rather than have a separate bobbin for each thread. These spools hold from 50 to 500 yards of thread, depending on its size (diameter). It’s best not to overfill them. These bobbin spools are identical to those included in the Norvise Bobbin Kit. Bobbin spools are available in packages of three spools, or in a box of ten.
Helpful hints: Winding in a set direction is not critical as the spools can be “turned around” on the bobbin. Norm suggests using a marking pen on the side of each spool to identify the thread type or size. A rubber band around the thread on the spool can be used to keep it from unraveling when stored.

The ECHO Ion reels are the best reel we've ever seen in the sub $100 category. They're made from what we call a "hybrid" design, cast in aluminum and then machined to provide the benefits of a machined bar stock reel without the high price associated with "fully" machined reels. All Ion reels are then coated with an impact-resistant, matte black finish to provide the best-looking, longest-lasting finish. Six sizes to fit any rod, starting with the 2/3 and finishing with the 10/12, which will hold the largest single-hand or two-handed lines with plenty of backing. ECHO Ion reels have stainless steel internal components and are primarily designed for fresh water use. They are not designed for, but can handle some exposure to salt providing extra care is taken to clean and lubricate them after each day on the water. At $79.95 retail for the three smaller reels and $99.99 for the three larger sizes, the ION reels are a "no brainer."
For the three larger reels we offer an optional heavier drag knob made from solid brass. This knob (sold separately) adds 2.3 oz to the reel weight, helping the reel balance with the longest two-hand rods. $15.99
ION REELS feature:
Maintenance-free Rulon disc drag with low start-up resistance
Backlash-free, instant drag reaction from one-way roller clutch bearing
Positive position click drag knob
Lightweight, hybrid design balances with lighter rods
OPST’s Commando Heads are extraordinarily fishable. These Skagit Heads are the result of decades of focus on sustained anchor systemology (SAS) by Ed Ward and Jerry French. They are designed to expand the capabilities of shorter spey rods, switch rods and single hand rods beyond that of normal. You may be surprised at their short length, but this was no accident. The ultra-short design provides an effortless casting feel and enhances performance in circumstances of restricted casting room, troublesome winds and in casting bulky flies. It also makes them more fishable than longer lines that are hard to control on the water. Wanna roll cast? Underhand? Nymph? Single hand Skagit with a haul? Overhead? Go right ahead.
The REMIX 4 HD Reel 3-PACK (Reel and 2 Spools) reel by Waterworks Lamson (SAVE $41.90) is the "Heavy Duty" version of the Remix. This reel has a full-cage design to capture line without failure. This is a great option for an entry-level Switch, Spey, boat or all around heavier duty reel.
A fusion between the free-form structures of a cast spool and the mechanical integrity of a CNC-machined case, Remix is a hybrid. The case, CNC-machined here in the U.S. from 6061 bar-stock aluminum, delivers maximum structural rigidity and durability all wrapped in a harder, brighter finish. The spool, compatible with the Liquid's, is pressure cast with radiused compound curves, near zero-radius inside corners and a precise fit and finish. It has a U-shape arbor and narrow format to aid in line control. Remix brings together the best of CNC machining and pressure-cast technologies to deliver an unprecedented level of quality for a bit more than $150. In addition to the US-made case, all critical drag components are CNC-machined here in the U.S. And like Liquid, Remix reels are assembled in Boise by our skilled and experienced team. The result of this Remix? High performance, reliability, quality assurance and sex appeal.
