EC2.5

An entry-to-mid-level freshwater bass rod series from Eagle Claw, sold as a value-oriented general bass fishing lineup built on 24-ton graphite. The EC2.5 name references a product tier below the EC3.5 Pro Series; it fits anglers seeking graphite performance without premium price. The two models in this batch represent the casting and spinning applications across standard bass techniques, the M power casting rod for finesse and moderate presentations; the MH spinning rod for more power-dependent techniques.

Neither is specialized for a single technique. Blanks are 24-ton graphite, functional sensitivity and adequate stiffness for bass fishing at this price point but not comparable to higher-modulus Japanese or boutique American blanks. Seaguide guides reduce tangle frequency; non-reflective midnight black finish; split-grip EVA handles are standard configuration. The lineup spans casting and spinning formats at 7', providing a matching pair usable with different reel preferences.

Both models are 7' single-piece designs. The casting model (EC170MMF1) is M power, MF action, versatile for shaky heads, Senko-style worms, and moderate crankbaits. The spinning model (EC1S70MHXF1) is MH power, XF action, the extra-fast tip and heavier power suggest it is optimized for jigging and pitching presentations where fast hook-set and sensitivity over finesse is preferred.
