G·Loomis Crankbait Series Rods

 G·Loomis Crankbait Series Rods incorporate all the elements of the best fiberglass crankbait rods, but with all the added benefits of graphite. These new rods have a soft, slow action that allows your lure to work perfectly and allows the fish to inhale the bait. But unlike fiberglass rods, they're incredibly light, super responsive and extremely sensitive. Their reduced weight makes them far less tiring to cast. Their sensitivity offers a huge advantage fishing swimming or suspending baits that bass and walleye engulf at rest. And their ability to respond instantly keeps the line tight when a fish jumps or makes a sudden move. In other words, you gain all the advantages of graphite with the action of glass. Each rod in the series is crafted with a special, high-performance graphite that gives them extra durability and flexibility, and each features an exquisite metallic copper finish.

Do the lakes you fish have an abundance of vegetation? Well, if the key to success is ripping big baits through the weeds, this highly versatile rod is the ticket. The softer, slower action makes it perfect for blades. The shorter length gives you ample room to accurately cast in and around heavy cover. And its beefy power rating lets you cast big baits like bullets. Amazing thing is, the rod itself feels like it weighs next to nothing. View/Buy

This is a beautiful rod for throwing medium-sized crankbaits and surface lures. It's awesome for deep-diving lures like the smaller Fat Free Shad and Deep Wee R's. It works well in close quarters thanks to its shorter length. And it makes a great buzzbait and spinnerbait rod as well. But where this rod really shines is with big stickbaits like the Zara Spook. It loads easily, it's extremely lightweight, and it has more than enough power to handle big fish.View/Buy

If you fish large surface lures and medium-sized crankbaits, you'll want a CBR843. It's a great rod for deep-diving lures like a Fat Free Shad or Wiggle Wart, and it'll throw a Rattle Trap the proverbial country mile. Stout enough to handle spinnerbaits and large buzzbaits, this rod also crosses over nicely for most light saltwater flats applications, including reds, bonefish, permit and seatrout. The slower action of the Crankbait Series design allows anglers fishing shrimp to land the bait very quietly, and that's a definite plus, especially in shallow water where the fish are spooky.

When you have to resort to those big, deep-diving crankbaits to dredge up a bass or two, this is the rod you'll want. It's extremely light, sensitive enough you can feel a big bass just look at your bait, and so responsive you'll be ready for every move he makes. The slow action allows your bait to work perfectly and lets the fish catch up with it. And the 5 power rating means there's plenty of muscle once you hook into that proverbial monster of the deep.View/Buy

The CBR847C is the new big daddy of our crankbait series. The perfect rod for big, oversize deep divers. It's the perfect combination of power and flexibility to handle the big Bagley baits, the 3/4 ounce Fat Free Shad and those bottom raking DD22's.View/Buy
