This is a casting rod designed for mooching in the ocean or drift fishing in rivers. It is surprisingly light considering the magnum power. There's plenty of strength in the butt-section to move fish away from trouble and manage them in the swift currents. The tip is relatively fast and it's very sensitive, allowing you to feel that subtle take that can make catching salmon in the rivers so difficult. Note: the lure rating refers to trolling/mooching weight. If you are casting from boat or bank in the river, it will handle 2 to 3-ounces effectively.

Handle: A
Length: 8'6"
Power: Heavy
Action: Moderate
Pieces: 2
Line (lb): 10-30
Lure (oz): 1-6
UPC: ‍601040115169

Our standard mooching rod, designed to fish cut-bait, flashers or lures in the ocean. When mooching or trolling, boat captains will spread their rigs by using shorter rods at the back of the boat with longer rods on the sides. This is usually the short rod at the corner and can be used in conjunction with a down-rigger. It will mooch or troll up to 6-ounces, but will cast only 2 or 3-ounces effectively. Drift fishermen can use it in the river for casting or plunking. It will handle even the largest of the salmon species, no problem!

Handle: A
Length: 9'0"
Power: Heavy
Action: Moderate
Pieces: 2
Line (lb): 10-30
Lure (oz): 1-6
UPC: ‍601040115176

A longer mooching rod designed to fish cut-bait, flashers or lures in the bays and ocean. The extra length is to accommodate longer leaders and allow you to spread the lines so you can fish multiple rods at the same time. The moderate action along with the extra length provide more flexibility in the rod, allowing salmon to munch on the bait without feeling a lot of resistance, a feature that is critical for successful mooching.

Handle: A
Length: 9'9"
Power: Heavy
Action: Moderate
Pieces: 2
Line (lb): 10-30
Lure (oz): 1-6
UPC: ‍601040115183

A longer, more powerful mooching rod designed for king salmon. It allows you to spread out lines to fish multiple set-ups without outriggers or downriggers and it will allow you to use even longer leaders if necessary. Like all G.Loomis mooching rods, the lure ratings on this rod reflects an effective range for trolling or mooching. It will handle about half of that weight for overhand casting.

Handle: A
Length: 10'6"
Power: Heavy
Action: Moderate
Pieces: 2
Line (lb): 10-40
Lure (oz): 1-6
UPC: ‍601040115190

The longest of our mooching rod selection. It is rated slightly lighter for both line and lure ratings due to the extra length. This rod provides maximum clearance for spreading out the mooching rigs and allows extra-long leader management. This particular rod is an excellent choice for silvers and small kings, but will handle an oversized surprise should you be so lucky. It will mooch or troll the up to 5-ounces, but it's not designed for casting.

Handle: A
Length: 12'3"
Power: Heavy
Action: Moderate
Pieces: 2
Line (lb): 10-25
Lure (oz): 1/2-5

Technology

MULTI-TAPER DESIGN

Since 1982, we’ve pushed the boundaries of manufacturing technology, materials innovation, and product design. That’s why G. Loomis rods deliver superior performance, heightening angler experience and effectiveness on the water. While there are countless examples of this philosophy in action, one technology in particular encapsulates our drive to build the most advanced rods in the world: 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 break points 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 catalog of precisely defined actions that strike a perfect balance between durability and performance.
