*1Fly rods from Gary Loomis (G.Loomis) have an excellent reputation worldwide - and have done so for many, many years! Quite a few models from the American rod maker enjoy absolute cult status today. This is hardly surprising, because at G.Loomis, one hundred percent fishability meets high-quality craftsmanship, the best components and timeless design. Exactly what discerning fly fishers are looking for! The NRX+ Saltwater single-handed rods now seamlessly join the long success story of G.Loomis.
When saltwater fishing, we often have to deal with strong, changing winds that have the potential to affect our productivity and fun factor - whether on a tropical flat or in our backyard at the Baltic Sea. But not with the NRX+ Saltwater fly rods from G.Loomis! That's because these saltwater rods were designed with maximum versatility in mind, and the adaptable action of the advanced blank enhances the caster's skills and expands tactical options in difficult fishing situations. The NRX+ rod blanks are rolled with G.Loomis most advanced compound taper construction and offer the power, line speed and loop stability expected from modern rods with fast action. All without compromising on 'feel' and finesse for clean presentations. This means the NRX+ offers anglers confidence-inspiring control regardless of casting distance or fishing difficulty - even in situations that are far from ideal.
NRX+ blanks are based on G-Loomis Dynamic Recovery technology. G.Loomis' brand new Mega Modulus+ graphite matrix and GL8 resin system combine with the industry's most advanced rod blank construction process to deliver powerful charging followed by instant recovery without reverberation. The key to achieving this performance feature lies in the redesign of the proprietary Multi-Taper design technology. This design has also previously been used by G. Loomis to improve recovery power and durability. Now it has been further developed, which not only increases the power of the blanks with a "sweet spot" for power and recovery, but also offers performance with feel regardless of casting distance. The Mega Modulus+ Matrix is 15% lighter than that of the original NRX rods, which improves sensitivity and reduces casting fatigue. The fast recovery allows for nice tight loops with less effort, helped by the newly used GL8 resin. It has the same strength and impact resistance as previous resin systems, but with less material. This reduces the overall weight and additionally limits fatigue. Last but not least, the excellent dampening properties of the NRX+ also deliver a clear, positive feel in the hand when fighting a fish.
The black, slim blank of the NRX+ presents itself with a classic finish, as discerning fly fishers expect from G.Loomis. Discreet blue decorative wraps and a beautiful full wells cork handle in AA quality with fighting butt belong to the convincing features of this rod series, as does a high quality ringing with corrosion-free components.
If you are looking for a high-end saltwater rod with fast yet sensitive action for fishing ... then look no further! The NRX+ Saltwater single handed rod will have you hooked. We are convinced of that. It doesn't matter if you want to drop a shrimp precisely in front of a school of bonefish, carry a heavy crab against the wind to a tailing permit or strip a baitfish streamer into a tarpon's field of vision. With the NRX+ Saltwater you are always well served! The very fast action of this rod is ideal for fishing for fast moving fish and allows you to change direction quickly and make long, accurate casts. For local fishing, the main areas of application for the NRX+ Saltwater are sea trout fishing (#7) and pike fishing. The classes #8 to #10 are extremely suitable for casting voluminous pike streamers and for fighting heavy pike due to their deep bending curve under load. In short: a very versatile rod series with saltwater-resistant components from the Champions League.
