With demand exploding for premium, high-performance Centerpin rods, G. Loomis has produced a new series of rods that will cover all your float needs, from the Great Lakes to the Pacific Northwest. The G. Loomis Centerpin Float Rods have very light yet strong tips that say goodbye to "tip sag." While other manufacturers have to add more material to create long rods like these, resulting in heavy sagging tips, G. Loomis chose to use their proprietary GLX graphite.

 

G. Loomis Salmon & Steelhead Centerpin Float Rods are finished with extra long cork and composite handles with Pac Bay sliding rings for perfect balance and reel positioning. G. Loomis then matched the finest high frame titanium RECOIL guides from REC for higher sensitivity and reduced weight. The result is the lightest, fastest rods of this length anywhere. The GLX graphite blanks are finished in a flat grey color.

 

Specific Rod Details

 

STR1352GLX - The 11'3" length makes this the perfect cp rod for the famous creeks of Pennsylvania and Indiana, and anywhere breaking through brush or fishing tight water is required. This rod has a soft enough tip to protect light leaders where water clarity requires them, yet maintains the power to turn a fresh run steelhead anywhere.

 

STR1562GLX - This rod is a great all-around rod no matter where you fish. The 13 foot length and high speed make casting floats of any size a dream. Its super light weight balances with almost any pin reel making long days with no arm fatigue possible for the first time.

 

STR1563GLX - Big water, heavy flows and large floats are no match for this 3 power. It's hard to believe a rod this light can handle 8-12 pound leaders and still have the speed to set hooks at distances never thought possible. This rod will also double as a coho/king rod in waters from BC to Oregon.

 

STR1803GLX - 15 foot, fast and light, never before has this option been available. With a 8-12 pound line rating this rod can master anything from the pier heads of Wisconsin to the Manistee, Thomson or the mighty Niagara. The extra length helps aid in extra long casts of oversized floats, keeping the line off the water and tiring fish in the largest steelhead water in the world.

          I have both glx 3 weight fished them for year both rods are amazing. I fish the Niagara with my 15 foot and smaller rivers with my 13 foot. Both rods eyes freeze but the tip is the worst lol. I only buy GLX for the lifetime warranty. Great rods and customer service. Who wouldn't want a new rod for 50 bucks. All you do is pay shipping. Looking to buy my fourth GLX. How many you own. And never buy a coville reel to dam heavy to jig all day

          The 15ft is extremely light for such a long rod. It can cast a mile and be used all day long with very little fatigue. If you fish big water this is one fantastic rod. The rod does not come with a rod tube so I would recommend picking up a St. Croix rod tube from these guys.

          This is a very good rod nice and light. Dont listen to the moron before me. He has no clue about the guides. The only guide that WILL freeze on you is the tip guide because it has ceramic in it. The recoils DO NOT FREEZE. I fished this rod many many days so far this season in well below freezing tips atleast 10 days on the water in temps below 25 deg. People may not like the looks of the recoils but they are the lightest and best at not freezing on you.

          If this is the future of rods to see for steelheading then wow! This is the finest factory produced rods I've ever seen for center-pin reels hands down. Not a big fan of Tennessee handles but i will ignore it due to quality. Light construction is an understatement. Power and action top notch. I'll be using these rods for years to come unless the blanks become available. Which Loomis believes in being a rod company not a blank company. Just buy it and you'll see what i'm talking about.

          Other than the sliding ring reel seat and the fact that there is no hook keeper, this is a Super Rod.
