I like this video, and love how the blanks are hand rolled in the united states. A 12 part process to finish the rod out. Ive only got 6 but plan on getting more. Never a complaint and love the rods. Its a 2 part video and the other is on youtube. Hope you enjoy.

I've always been a huge Loomis fan. Got my first one when I was 15. 17 years ago....ha!

I've always had good luck with Loomis. Great rod, great quality all around. I like that they are hand made here in the USA rather than importing a blank in from China. They are expensive but you get what you pay for. If you are fortunate enough to find them used its a lot better on the wallet too.

Awesome video!

just bought my first gloomis this week, always used Duckett rods for the longest and I guess I figured it was time to try something new, hopefully I'm not disappointed

Keep us posted Modguy56! What model did you end up with?

Can't go wrong with any of them. I have several E6Xs, one NRX and one GLX. The E6X rods are a great deal, especially considering how much manual AMERICAN labor goes into making them. The NRX and GLX are phenomenal rods, a little pricier, but I can feel the difference in sensitivity and weight. That's why I bought the NRX and the GLX for techniques I use year around. Tackle Warehouse has two great videos on the process. I haven't watched the link in this one but if it's the same as the TW ones, it's a great video to watch.

I bought a E6X, 7'1 medium heavy, gonna do alot of flipping with it, definitely excited to try it out this weekend

Alex, it's the series of videos that Tacklewarehouse did with Jared Litner and you are right they are some pretty cool videos. I like that i know what im getting with G Loomis. Its a great product and they stand behind it 100%. Modguy56 you made a good decision, the E6 series got best of show at icast for the rods so that speaks for itself!

I'm biased, but they are the best.

Put a stupidly high-dollar NRX in your hand even without a reel or line, and it will stick in your brain for the rest of your life -- or at least it's done that to me and one of my buds.

E6X are great too....

I Agree Jay Kumar, I'm trying to scrape up some cash for a Nrx right now! lol

I have two E6X's and love them! Are the GLX & NRX more sensitive?

Yes, E6X < IMX < GLX < NRX as sensitivity goes. NRX level sensitivity is unmatched.

I just bought 3 GL2 rods from Dick's Sporting Goods on clearance for $120 each. I don't see Made in America anywhere on the rod. I did find a G Loomis video stating that these rods are in fact made in America but Cabela's website states made in China.

Can anyone shed any light?

Thanks.
