G. Loomis Classic Popping PR844S (GLX) Spinning Rod
The Popping Rod series was originally designed for casting live shrimp under a cork for saltwater flats species like seat root and redfish. As anglers will, they quickly discovered that these rods worked exceptionally for fishing soft plastics and small jigs for bonefish, small snook, and other regular flats. They have soft tips that allow the bait to land quietly, even on long casts. They come in various lengths for different fishing applications, including artificial lures like spoons, bucktails, or topwater lures. Despite their featherweight feel, these are surprisingly strong rods capable of handling large fish, including that occasional small tarpon or an oversized snook. They feature quality cork handles, Fuji reel seats, and Fuji guides. The reel seats have blank construction, with a "cut" in front of the trigger, exposing the blank for added sensitivity on casting models. Actions range from moderately fast to extra-fast. The guides are oversized to allow for heavy knots and shock lacing.
