G Loomis CrossCurrent GLX Fly Rods are one of the best long-range weapons you will find anywhere. This 7wt is great rod for almost any of the popular flats species like redfish, bonefish, specks and small permit. It's light, but don't let that fool you. It's more powerful than you think and totally capable of handling oversized surprises! When you want to go to a slightly lighter rod on the flats, whether for fun or the challenge, this is an excellent choice. These rods are designed to shred the wind, throwing tight loops and long distances. Like the NRX, this rod has a very powerful butt and mid section, with a progressively softer tip. The CrossCurrent GLX will make difficult casts to distant cruising fish in windy conditions and meet the demands of saltwater environments.
CrossCurrent GLX rods feature G Loomis Fiber Blend technology, Multi-Taper design, and quality components. This rod is finished in an attractive olive/brown color with dark brown wraps, a full wells grip and fighting butt. The reel seat is a green anodized aluminum double uplocking ring seat with a complimentary olive/brown graphite insert. Unbreakable wire recoil stripping guides with flexible nickel/titanium snake guides reduce friction to shoot line further. The CrossCurrent GLX is simply a great distance saltwater rod, at a great price.
