What is the best G Loomis fishing rod?

Mar 22, 2007 by Meagan | Posted in Fishing

I am getting my boyfriend a G Loomis for his birthday. He does a lot of saltwater flats fishing as well freshwater bass fishing and such. I think the IMX or the Greenwater series is going to be my best bet, but I don't know which one. I don't want

G Loomis GLX series #BCR893 is a great crossover rod for bass and flats fishing. 7'5" MH action for Senko's but this rod has the power closer to tip for great hooksets and BIG fish. They run $370 at BassPro but I have seen them on Ebay for under

G Loomis Pro Green Fishing Rod Review | www.boats.com

This is a 6′10″ fast-action, medium-weight rod, with cork grips and a graphite reel seat. It doesn’t come cheap at $240 (other Pro Greens range up to 7′10″ and $270, prices are listed out at www.gloomis.com ) but you get what you pay for. And in this case, you pay for fantastic sensitivity and lightening-fast action that’s perfect for long-range hook-sets. Greg found this out, when a 26″ striper grabbed his lure yesterday while we casted chartruese grubs in the shallows of the middle Chesapeake.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The PGR822S-1 we were testing is rated for six to 12-pound test line, and we had it matched up with a Shimano 4000D Baitrunner reel spooled up with 12-pound Power Pro Braid. Other Pro Greens in their line-up can handle eight to 15, and 10 to 17 pound test lines. If you’re looking for a rod that’ll be used for cast-and-retrieve fishing with leadheads and grubs, I doubt you’ll find any better then the Pro Green. We absolutely loved it; after he caught that striper Greg didn’t want to give the rod up – and I don’t blame him one bit!
