G Loomis Fishing Rods

To be frank, my first dealing with a G Loomis fishing rod left me surprised and impressed with the quality of the pole. A die-hard Ugly Stik man, any freshwater fishing rod that does not bear the name ‘Shakespeare’ is normally left behind. Obviously that was a short-sighted mindset for me to have. It didn’t take me long to fall in love with the G. Loomis SJR 844S. I was fishing a northern Saskatchewan lake full of weeds and lily-pads; it was a perfect environment to test the quality and craftsmanship that goes into every G. Loomis rod.

The rod would have to stand up against violent and sometimes woefully unnecessary set downs. Certainly the best way to test any freshwater fishing rod, especially a G. Loomis item, is to hook a rather good-sized northern pike, and see how the rod responds to the battle.

Needless to say my experience with the G. Loomis SJR 844 was a fantastic one and with the assistance of this superior rod, I was able to land not one but two 12 pound pike. I tested the G. Loomis freshwater fishing rod in more ways than one by purposely slamming down rod tips and back-bending that has proven to be fatal for many rods that I tested with this tricky, unnecessary movement. The G. Loomis fishing rod stood up to every challenge I presented that night!

This G Loomis rod came through with flying colors. G Loomis fishing rods are my favorite rods and have produced many countless numbers of great memories and trophy-sized pike, walleye and largemouth bass.
