I have the behemoth in 7/8. The 7/8 Bravo is an ounce heavier (8.5oz) but it has a saltwater safe sealed drag. That extra ounce would probably not affect your feel that much if your setup is balanced and the Bravo is gonna be better in the long run. The Bravo also has a big game handle which is preferred. Regardless I've seen ppl catching anything from sailfish and GT to trout and panfish on Redington Behemoths and I personally use mine in the salt as well. Just remember to give it a good rinse after fishing
Echo Bravo vs Redington Behemoth?

Scott Session review please Ben…
How about using the 7/9 for a 6wt freshwater setup?
Scott Session review please..🙂
I’ve used an Echo Bravo into my second saltwater season with no problems so far. Great price for a saltwater reel!
Scott session review please!
