Our goal has always been to make very accurate, technique specific walleye rods. Now, thanks to the input received from the tournament anglers, guides and G.Loomis Fish Team members like Dan Plautz, we've made them even better. Sporting a new look and new actions, these rods are Over the years, some of the techniques have changed, fisheries have changed and anglers have adjusted, so we have totally redesigned our entire selection of walleye rods, improving the actions with even more precise tapers and length adjustments to cover the most technical aspects of the fishery, especially where light weight and sensitivity are an important factor for success. There are eight models in our proprietary "blended fibers" with Fuji Alconite guides and eight of the same models in GLX with Recoil guides. Rods specifically designed for pitching jigs, vertical jigging, bait rigs and back-bouncing. When lightweight and sensitivity really makes a difference, we recommend GLX!! You’ll discover a world of difference.
Maintaining contact with the bottom and adjusting to depth change is critical with the bottom-bouncing technique, so anglers are constantly working the rig. The goal is to keep the bait in the "zone" as much as possible. We designed these rods with just "enough" power in the butt-section for positive control without adding extra weight. Then we blended in a lightweight, responsive tip-section for the ultimate in sensitivity. This may the most technical walleye rod we make.
