I haven't tried it. Does the butt flex in your hand?

What a question, it probably does, haven't taped it, and only cast it once before some time ago, just know its alot stiffer in the butt than the other echo I was casting with the three weight line on it....

Ok but this isn't very scientific

I don't know, I'd assumed so. Truth be known it's probably much more oomplex. It's probably not one or the other (when it's very close) but it's at all other times different.

It's going to be more Scientific than you claiming there's alot of rods that do not bend in the lower 1/3 dude

I think under many casting situations they don't. Flexing the rod in the hand is a good comparison between blanks, but I simply don't know the Echo.

Gotta run. Fishing with Ronan!
