Conquer the toughest fishing condition
Edgy environmental factors like sustained wind, complex hydraulics, and natural structure all pack the potential to punish productivity. Favour may be stacked in nature's corner but the G.Loomis NRX+ 490-4 Freshwater Fly Rod levels the playing field. Its primary focus is on maximising versatility - adaptable actions that improve angler capability and expand tactical opportunity in difficult fishing situations. This rod features advanced compound taper construction and provides the power, line speed and loop stability from modern fast-action rods. All these without compromising feel and finesse in the short game. This means, regardless of casting distance or difficulty, G.Loomis NRX+ 490-4 Freshwater Fly Rod empowers you to gain confidence-boosting control in less-than-ideal situations.
Dynamic Recovery Technology
Dynamic Recovery Technology is a blended system of several elements. The all-new Mega Modulus+ graphite matrix and GL8 resin system, combined with the industry’s most advanced compound taper construction process, creates crisp actions with smooth, rapid recovery. The key to achieving these performance characteristics is a reimaging of G.Loomis’ proprietary Multi-Taper Design technology. Traditionally used to enhance durability and swing weight, the G. Loomis design team developed a method of applying a similar process to improve loading efficiency and feedback. This widens the power and recovery “sweet spot”, providing performance with feel regardless of casting distance.
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 us to use more material on potential breakpoints and less material everywhere else. To accomplish this, we manufactured a custom rolling table...and it’s the only one in existence today. The result is a catalogue of precisely defined actions that perfectly balance durability and performance.
NRX Matrix
The essence of perfection. Using Mega-modulus material with incredible tensile strength, and our most advanced proprietary GL7 Resin System, rods built on the NRX matrix are the lightest, most sensitive traditionally constructed graphite rods ever produced by G. Loomis. Anglers can easily feel the difference between their lure dragging across sand, gravel and rock in water depths exceeding 60 feet. The graphite, resins, and components used to construct these rods come to life enabling the angler to be confident that they have the right tool for the job while exceeding all expectations.
SiC Titanium Stripper + Titanium Recoil Snake
The perfect marriage of strength, weight savings, and stealth. While ultra-light titanium snakes look the part of a traditional guide, the added benefit of flexibility is great insurance when storing your sticks in a skiff or drift boat.
