G Loomis 2024 GLX Bass Spinning Rods
With over four decades of experience handcrafting rods in the United States to the finest capabilities on the market, the G Loomis 2024 GLX Bass Spinning Rods embody the pursuit of G Loomis for "continuous refinement" and serve as the tangible benchmark that other manufactures can only attempt to follow.
Refined Blank Technology
At the core of this next evolution is its refined and improved rod blank, with key structural upgrades that have been achieved through the proprietary blend of high-modulus graphite and advanced resin technologies. Boosted strength-to-weight ratios, improved balance, and the seemly unattainable step up in the sensitivity department over its previous generation make for a serious force to reckon with on the water. Each blank is rolled on stepped mandrels, along with undergoing machining processes to create a series of micro-tapers at key areas of the blank. This process, known as Multi-Taper Design, works to isolate potential failure points of the blank and reinforce them with added material for class leading durability. Engineers at G Loomis took this innovative rod technology one step further, by incorporating unique flex patterns within the blank and tuning them for technique specific actions.
Premium Componentry
All models in this GLX Bass series utilize a full lineup of lightweight and robust Fuji K guides with SiC rings, dispersing line freely with tangle free performance. Premium AAA cork grips have the right amount of grip and comfort for hard use to come. A custom lightweight CI4+ reel seat provides the rock-solid grip on your favorite reel and amplify the angler's connection to the rod blank for every bit of added sensitivity that can be offered.

Technique Specific Actions:
Jig & Worm (JWR):
Fast to Extra-Fast actions to increase accuracy and line control for low trajectory casting scenarios and imparting subtle movement to the bait. This matched with a sturdy butt section provides ample pulling power when clearing beasts from heavier cover, also offers enhanced utility when dragging football jigs off a ledge or slinging ribbontails at the bank.
Shakeyhead (SYR):
Custom tuned tip flex to improve the anglers ability to impart the most subtle and tantalizing motion of their offering, all with minimal rod movement. Its blank stiffens towards the handles, giving the heavy-handed horsepower to lift fish from down deep and away from hazardous strucutures and other pieces of cover with minimal effort on the anglers part.
Dropshot (DSR):
A carefully dialed combination of taper & balance for anglers to hook and fight fish with light leaders and mainline. Their lighter powered blanks act as a shock absorber to keep fish pinned and truly dominate the finnesse presentation.
Spin Jig (SJR):
The ultimate utility rod originally designed for soft plastic applications, it is found its way be the ideal choice for anglers who prefer the spinning rod to cast hard baits and other lures. Spybaits, hair jigs, and more are equally good options with this taper selection, along with other finesse swimming lures and vertical options.
