New! G. Loomis IMX-Pro M Fly Rods

New! G. Loomis IMX-Pro Musky Fly Rods

You are the lord of the long-odds. Experienced. Focused. Packed with grit to grind.....and the G. Loomis IMX-Pro Musky rod is your weapon of choice. Featured here in the 9' 11wt version which is rated for 400-450 grains. Hottest Musky rods on the market today.

Nothing's easy about coaxing musky with a fly. With massive technical demands, the battle is downright physical. Beacasue your rotator cuff just isn't enough, IMX-PROm feature "all day" actions that ooze shoulder-saving sweetness. Mega-durable cloud cork top/bottom grips keep both hands busy long after everyone else is waming theirs back at the cabin. Partnered with professional guide and Elite Ambassador, Chris Willen, Loomis' motivation to forge the most advanced tools for modern musky angling match your intense drive for success on the water.

Conduit Core

Traditioinally, as the blank diameter increases, so does the total amount used. This was the only way of ensuring strength/durability in the bottom half of the rod. Conduit Core technology removed excess wraps of graphite and replaces them with a proprietary material that's of equal strength, but dramatially lighter in weight. Casters exert less energy to move the rod, increasing the total energy required to manipulate the line when casting, mending and animaing flies.

* High-modulus graphite construction
* Balanced swing weight + incredible durability
* Multi-Taper Design reinforces potential stress points within the blank while reducing unnecessary graphite material

Features

* Chrome single-foot guides
* Chrome stripper guides (3 total for increased durability)
* Cloud Composite "Magnum Grip"
* Custom aluminum up-locking reel seat
* Tube and cloth rod bag
* Handcrafted in Woodland, Washington

The G. Loomis IMX-PRO Musky Fly Rods featured come in the 1190-4 and 1290-4 versions.
