G. Loomis E6X Steelhead Spinning Rod, Model 12743-01

The G. Loomis proprietary "fiber-blend" and E6X technology allow them to make these rods long, light, well-balanced and surprisingly sensitive! Actions vary from moderate to fast, depending on the model, with excellent mending qualities for natural, drag-free drifts! Cork handles with their proprietary hybrid/cork mid-body reel seats and Fuji Guides are standard on models up to 11' 4" Cork handles with Fuji full barrel reel seat on the 12' 3" model and Skamania handle with longer fore-grip on 13' 4" rod.

MULTI-TAPER DESIGN

Since 1982, G. Loomis has pushed the boundaries of manufacturing technology, materials innovation, and product design. That’s why G. Loomis rods deliver superior performance, heightening angler experience and effectiveness on the water. While there are countless examples of this philosophy in action, one technology in particular encapsulates their drive to build the most advanced rods in the world: Multi-Taper Design. Multi-Taper Design is best described as a series of “micro-tapers” within the overall taper of the rod. This unique, proprietary process allows them to use more material on potential break points and less material everywhere else. To accomplish this, they manufactured a custom rolling table...and it’s the only one in existence today. The result is a catalog of precisely defined actions that strike a perfect balance between durability and performance.

12743-01

 :

A 10-foot medium-heavy spinning rod designed for fishing larger floats on big water. It will handle big steelhead and is very effective where you don't need to make super long casts or drifts. It provides excellent float control and because it's a little shorter than most float rods, you can react a little quicker. It will handle jigs up to 1-ounce. E6X makes it light, sensitive and well-balanced.
