The ECHO Swing Switch 7117 is a powerful, smooth two-handed fly rod built for anglers who need serious backbone without stepping up to a full-length spey rod. Designed with a medium-fast action, this 11'7" 7-weight delivers crisp recovery, excellent load control, and the strength required for swinging flies, skating dries, and running indicator or sink-tip setups in rivers where space is limited.
Built around ECHO’s proven two-handed rod design, the Swing Switch series is tuned for real-world fishing rather than competition casting. The 7117 offers the muscle to handle steelhead, salmon, and large trout while remaining smooth and forgiving enough for a wide range of casting strokes. Whether you’re working tight riverbanks, covering mid-sized runs, or fishing heavier systems, this rod provides the control and stability needed to fish effectively all day.
The blank features a striking gloss blue steel finish and is outfitted with SIC stripping guides and hard chrome snake guides for smooth line flow and long-term durability. An anodized aluminum reel seat delivers a solid, corrosion-resistant foundation, while two grip styles support both switch and spey techniques. The rod comes protected in a fabric-covered rod case and sock and is backed by ECHO’s lifetime warranty.
At Harbour Chandler, we recommend the ECHO Swing Switch 7117 to anglers looking for a high-value switch rod that bridges the gap between single-hand and full spey setups, offering power, versatility, and excellent fish-fighting control for demanding river fishing.
