Description

Casting Game Changers to feisty smallmouth, ripping Bufords past heavy pike, or slinging a Zoo Cougar into that deep undercut bank for some serious trout, the G. Loomis NRX+ Swim Fly Rod is one that can handle all of your streamer pursuits. G. Loomis designed their NRX+ Swim as the ultimate rod for fishing streamers (especially those that are articulated) and baitfish patterns, and while some streamer-specific rods may sacrifice distance for accuracy (and vise versa), the NRX+ Swim Fly Rod merges distance, accuracy, and an ability to properly swim every streamer into one even playing field. This fast-action rod is handcrafted in Woodland, Washington and comes in at 8’8'' with 7 and 8 weight line options to ensure that no freshwater predatory fish is out of your league. An excellent tool for delivering, presenting, and fishing streamers of all sizes and types, the G. Loomis NRX+ Swim Fly Rod is a superior tool for all of us looking to sling meat and find the largest fish in the water.

Blank

Dynamic Recovery Technology Blank With Multi-Taper Design - Built with a blend of elements, the NRX+ Swim Rod is crafted with G. Loomis’ Mega Modulus+ graphite matrix and GL8 Resin System. These materials combine with Loomis’ Multi-Taper Design to deliver you a lightweight rod with a fast-action, butter-smooth feel, and ultra-fast recovery. Loomis’ Multi-Taper Design is essentially a series of “micro tapers” within the build of the rod that adds a little extra material to potential break points and a little less material everywhere else--think of it as the perfect balance between reliable strength and a light feel. Built with the quality that G. Loomis is known for, the NRX+ Swim Fly Rod has everything that you need to punch streamers with accuracy and cast any distance the fish are feeding.

And with stealth being a key component to any streamer fishing, Loomis builds their NRX+ Swim Rod in a sharp black color with black thread wraps that complement any predatory fishing experience.

Guides

Titanium SiC Stripper Guides - In their choice of Titanium SiC Stripper Guides, Loomis gives this rod smooth shooting power, durability, and a lightweight feel, as well as just enough flex to prevent damage when being jostled around in a drift boat, skiff, or the back of a truck.

Recoil Snake Guides - Durable and lightweight, the Recoil Snake Guides keep your casts as slick as can be while preventing the possibility of misshapen guides.

Reel Seat

Custom Aluminum Reel Seat - Ultra lightweight and resistant to corrosion, the NRX+ Swim has a dual-uplocking reel seat that gives a sleek look while ensuring that you never need to worry about your reel knocking loose while battling the fish of the year. And for those times whenever you get into the fish of the decade, Loomis outfits this rod with a fighting butt to let you easily increase your fighting power and gain control.

Rod Tube

Aluminum Rod Tube and Cloth Bag - As stealthy as the rod it carries, G. Loomis stores their NRX+ in a black aluminum rod tube that securely stores your rod whether it’s in your buddies’ truck bed or the overhead storage of a plane.

Warranty

As of June 2021, G. Loomis has a Limited Lifetime Warranty against non-conformities in workmanship and materials for the life of the original owner. Should you have an issue in workmanship or materials, G. Loomis will repair or replace your rod at no cost to you. Now, should you break your rod due to neglect, normal wear and tear, misuse, abuse, alteration, or accidental damage, your rod will be replaced or repaired for a specific fee--the fee is determined by G. Loomis and may vary.

G. Loomis NRX+ Swim Fly Rod Review

Big flies, shooting heads, and voracious predatory fish are all the rage in the world of fly fishing. The craze was popularized by anglers like Mike Schultz, Kelly Galloup, and Blane Chocklett, who are responsible for tying some of the meanest and ugliest streamers around. Although the ‘streamer junkie’ movement led to rapid advancements in fly design, the specialized equipment needed for this adrenaline-pumping action has failed to keep up. For years, streamer anglers have made do with salt sticks designed for flats fishing. Sight casting to bonefish with a...

Have only been able to

"Have only been able to try it out on my lawn. Rivers too high ,flooded . But can easily make 50+ feet cast with accuracy even with windy conditions. Looking forward to getting on the water and seeing how it preforms in more realistic conditions."

Loomis NRX+ Swim Fly Rod

"This rod is perfect for large streamers for targeting larger trout, and most striped bass and northern pike. It has the necessary strength to handle even the large jerk changer streamers with sinking lines. You will like if you get it."

Highly Recommend

"If you’re looking for a streamer rod this is it. Throws big streamers and heavy lines but is also delicate enough to present to a redfish in skinny. The shorter length doesn’t impact distance at any reasonable casting length. I have the 8 wt and would highly recommend for bass and inshore species"

Mr M. (5/5)

Wowed

"This rod is the dream for chucking meat. I picked up the 7wt for streamer fishing northern Michigan trout rivers from a boat. I have gone through a grip of high end rods in 6-8 wt over the past several years but was never quite satisfied. This rod is super accurate when trying to hit that little patch of frog water tucked into thick cover and at 8’ 8” it feels shorter when casting on rivers with lots of bank cover. The rod casts great at distance, in-close and roll casts with the same distance and accuracy. What really impressed was how light the rod made everything feel. When casting a 240 grain Streamer Max short with a full sized sex dungeon, it felt like I was casting a woolly bugger with a 5wt. The strikes and fish fighting are tons of fun because of how sensitive the rod is and I’m looking forward to more days on the water with this one. I haven’t found many reviews online for this rod which I’m not sure why. I was hesitant to pull the trigger because of that, but am sure happy I did."
