G loomis Gl Classic Fly Fishing Rod FR1085 GlX

Product Review

Steelhead and salmon may well be the very reason G.loomis exists. We're positive it's why Gary loomis exists. It was his pursuit for the ultimate ultra-light steelhead rods that started a line-up of amazing fly rods for every fishing application. Some rods stood out from the rest and remained the favorites for literally millions of anglers worldwide. We're proud to call these two-piece rods, THE ClASSICS. You already know about the advantages of GlX, with its unique "lighter than air" balance, the subtle power, the castability and immediate response. Factor in the high line speeds, unbelievably tight loops and superior fish fighting power, these rods are the edge of the envelope for both performance and technology. Gl3 rods on the other hand, offer the ultimate in light weight and forgiveness as well as a great value. If you're looking for a rod that will help you improve your casting stroke and amaze you with its ability to handle fish, you'll find nothing quite like Gl3. This is the bread and butter trout rod for most anglers with all-around versatility and performance. The GlX is the lightest, finest casting 9-foot 5-weight you'll ever cast. The Gl3 version is a bit punchier than its GlX sibling thanks to a multi-taper tip.
