Conventional G. Loomis | Center Pin

Center Pin Rods & Reels Are Not A New Concept Or Technique, But They Are New To Today’S Angler. The Theory Behind The Technique Is A Drag-Free Drift, Whether You’Re Fishing Bait On The Bottom Or Suspending Bait Or Jigs Beneath A Float. The Reels, Extremely Smooth Single-Action Models, Resemble Fly Reels And Have Clicker Drag Systems To Help Prevent Free-Spooling. They Have Rimmed Spools So The Anglers Can Apply The Necessary Drag By Palming The Spool. The Technique Requires A Long, Light, Responsive Rod. The Older Versions Were Tip-Heavy And That Made Them Tiresome To Fish. You Would Spend Your Entire Day Trying To Keep That Tip In A Positive, Upright Position, All The While Trying To Concentrate On The Bite, While Battling That Tip-Heavy, Uncomfortable Feeling. That’S Where G.Loomis And Glx Come Into Play. We Not Only Can Make Them Longer, More Responsive And Dynamically Lighter, But We’Ve Shifted The Weight Towards The Butt-Section Of The Rod . We Use A Blend Of Composite And Species Cork In The Handle To Help Maintain A Delicate Balance At The Angler’S End Of The Rod And Split Rings So You Can Position Your Reel Where You Want It. Add To That Recoil (Nickel-Titanium) Guides That Are About Half The Weight Of Standard Guides And These Rods Create A Pronounced Wow!! It’S What We Do And What You’Ve Come To Expect!”
