Loomis & Franklin IM12 Euro Nymph Fly Rod
Fly rods from Loomis & Franklin in Italy are developed in close collaboration with Soldarini Fly Tackle or Sandro Soldarini. Modern carbon fiber rods that offer a convincing price-performance ratio and very solid construction. With models for all important scenarios, Loomis & Franklin provide an affordable entry into the world of fly fishing or a reliable backup for advanced anglers.
IM12 Nymph single-handed rods from Loomis & Franklin allow for a cost-effective entry into the exciting world of nymph fishing in the style of tight line nymphing ('Euro Nymphing', 'French Nymphing', 'Czech Nymphing'). The longer, slender blank enables optimized drifts and bite detection during tight line nymphing. This is also facilitated by the soft tip, which reliably transmits even the most delicate takes to the angler's fingertips. The delicate stripping guides are positioned to minimize the risk of line slack. Other features of the Nymph rods from Loomis & Franklin include a down-locking aluminum reel seat and a slim handle made of high-quality cork. All rods are delivered in a Cordura tube with a case.
The Loomis & Franklin Nymph series impresses not only with its attractive price but also with its practical performance. If you're looking for an affordable nymph rod for use on streams and rivers, then we highly recommend the IM12 Nymph. While the models with a length of 11 ft. should be exclusively used for sensitive nymph fishing, the shorter 9.6 ft. rods can also cast traditional fly lines and dry flies beautifully.
