This is quite simply the nicest spinning rod on the market excluding the GLX version.
Garry Loomis was the first person ever to build graphite rods back in the late seventies so this company knows how to build a rod! Since then they have been perfecting the technique and the resulting rod range represents the pinnacle of graphite fishing rod construction in the world today. G.Loomis develop most of their spinning and salmon rods around the US steelhead fishery. This highly technical group of anglers demand the lightest, most sensitive, accurate casting & responsive rods they can get and if a rod wont measure up to their standards then it doesn't last very long in the G.loomis line.
This 6' 1-4lb spinning rod weighs next to nothing in the hand. The GL3 graphite is extremely sensitive. What this means is not just related to strikes but feeling where your lure is working in the current, just tapping the bottom, dragging weed or puffing up the sand on the bottom of the lake. The blank is so responsive it will cast even the smallest rapalas and bladed lures far longer distances, that in some situations will make all the difference between having a ball or drawing a blank.
Rated for 1-4lb this rod is an ultralight anglers dream rod. Perfect for low clear water, technical fishing and casting tiny lures or even if you just want to have a heap of fun on smaller fish.
If you enjoy spinning for trout a little more than most and want to try something a little lighter on an entirely new level then this is it!
