G-Loomis - Spin Jig Rods



G-LoomisA real bass fisherman never, but never admitted using a spinning rod, unless it was for panfish, and even then it was iffy. But times are changing and so are techniques. First out of the closet were the die-hard smallmouth anglers. They favored the spinning rod because they needed lighter line and smaller lures to fool those super cautious brown bass.

Then, as finesse fishing came into play, more and more anglers found the spinning rod to be the perfect solution for the clear water lakes where spotted bass and smallmouths abound. The only negative was nobody ever really offered the nice, fast-action rods that the casting crowd enjoyed. That was until we introduced the Spin Jig Series. It’s the unique, blend of dynamic tapers and super sensitive materials that helped make these the rod of choice for serious finesse anglers. Grubs, small worms, hair jigs, split shot rigs, drop shot rigs, tiny crankbaits... you name it, the spin jig rod is your answer.



SJR6400    Length: 5'4"    Power: 00    Pieces: 1 Spinning
We designed this rod for fishing small spinnerbaits and leadhead jigs in clear rivers and lakes, where a shorter rod is beneficial for both accuracy and presentation. It's also a good choice for vertical jigging over brush piles for crappie in deep water. It's a nice smallmouth rod for rivers, where smaller baits are essential, allowing you to both enjoy smaller fish and handle bigger ones. The magnum taper (meaning the tip's light and the butt's very strong) gives the rod a little more versatility and allows you to use a wider variety of lures. If there were such a thing as a "magnum ultra-light," this would be it.

SJR641    Length: 5'4"    Power: 1    Pieces: 1 Spinning
Here's a highly specialized rod for vertical jig presentations in rivers and lakes. Designed to handle lighter jigs and jig/worm combinations in relatively shallow water, this shorter-than-normal spinning rod has a fast taper for positive line and lure control, as well as a quick hook set. It casts quite well, and is equally effective for twitching minnowbaits and chugger/poppers.

SJR642    Length: 5'4"    Power: 2    Pieces: 1    Spinning
Makes a good rod for "skipping" baits under boat docks and brush, where a shorter rod is better, allowing you more room to maneuver. If you prefer a spinning rod, this makes a really good stick for surface lures like the Pop-R and Spit'n Image. For fishing pocket water and deep runs for river smallmouth, this is an excellent vertical jigging rod. The fast tip and shorter length are a plus when it comes to reaction time, both for setting the hook quickly and maintaining snag-free contact with the bottom.

SJR700    Length: 5'10"    Power: 0    Pieces: 1    Spinning
This is the ultimate deep-water crappie rod. It'll cast a 1/8 ounce jig a hundred feet and still has plenty of power to pull a big slab crappie out of a bush in 30 feet of water. The extra-fast tip combined with the magnum taper also makes this a beautiful small stream smallmouth rod. Whether you fish with small jigs, minnow lures, spinners, or grubs, this rod has the perfect combination of power and action to cover all presentations, yet it's still light enough to have a lot of fun in the process.

SJR720    Length: 6'    Power: 0    Pieces: 1    Spinning
This rod incorporates an ultralight tip and a strong butt-section, making it a very good choice for smallmouth or spotted bass-especially where smaller lures and lighter line make a difference. Perfectly balanced for 1/8 ounce grubs and jigs with 6 pound line, this rod is better for swimming jigs than bouncing them on the bottom. The tip is soft enough to fish 4 pound line and really light baits, like tube jigs and crappie jigs, even when you downsize to 1/64 ounce. When those smallies get tough and you can see the bottom in ten feet of water, this rod will save your bacon.

SJR721    Length: 6'    Power: 1    Pieces: 1    Spinning
We designed the 721 specifically to fish lightweight jigs, grubs and minnow-type hard baits. This model is perfectly balanced for 8-pound line and 1/4-ounce lures, but it's versatile enough to go up or down a line and still feel good. If you fish a Pop-R or similar surface lure on spinning gear, the 721 is a good choice. It has a soft enough tip to cast lightweight minnow baits, yet enough authority to handle oversized surprises. Excellent for small spinnerbaits that are too light for a baitcasting outfit.

SJR722    Length: 6'    Power: 2    Pieces: 1    Spinning
This is our most popular warmwater spinning rod. It boasts a fast action and a strong tip, giving you plenty of versatility for fishing a variety of lures and live baits. Best paired with 10-pound line, this is an excellent choice for fishing Long-A's or Rapalas, as well as 1/4-ounce leadheads for swimming salt grubs. It's also a good rod for 4-inch "Texas-style" worm rigs or tube jigs. There's plenty of power to set the hook, and it handles big fish extremely well, yet it's light enough to enjoy smaller-size fish, no problem. If you prefer spinning rods, you'll appreciate the accuracy and flexibility this rod offers.

SJR723    Length: 6'    Power: 3    Pieces: 1    Spinning
A powerful spinning rod designed to fish deep-water situations with jigging spoons, grubs and plastic worms, the 723 makes a great spinnerbait rod in light to medium-heavy cover. The fast taper allows you to move fish away from snags and still offers maximum accuracy and lure control. We rate it for up to 15-pound line, but it's probably best suited to 12-pound test. Its powerful butt-section and tip make it a good choice for deep-water situations where sensitivity and fast recovery are paramount to success.

SJR781    Length: 6'6"    Power: 1    Pieces: 1    Spinning
A specialty rod for fishing lighter line on large streams and clear, deep-water lakes. The extra length creates a wider arc and increased tip speed, giving you greater casting distance. It also moves more line during the hook set, critical to success in deep water situations. Designed to fish smaller lures -especially in open water situations where light line makes a difference. A terrific deep-water crappie rod for big, brush-filled lakes where you might need slightly heavier tackle.

SJR782    Length: 6'6"    Power: 2    Pieces: 1    Spinning
One of our most versatile warmwater spinning rods, the 782 has a fast taper for a more positive hook set and greater casting distance. The extra length provides better line and lure control, especially in deep water, where slack line may cost you a fish. A good choice for fishing minnow baits like the Long-A and Rapala, and the preferred rod for split-shotting worms and grubs. If your preference for bass is spin over cast, this is a good light spinnerbait and crankbait rod.

A fast, powerful taper, it'll fish jigs and worms, as well as spinnerbaits, and even live bait. A good choice for fishing plastic worms or grubs in deep water, especially in moderate cover where more power is required. There's plenty of power here. "Schoolie" stripers don't stand a chance. If you want one rod to fish a lot of different situations, this is the one.

SJR842    Length: 7'    Power: 2    Pieces: 1    Spinning
Originally, we designed this rod to extend the range of one of our most popular 6-foot Spin Jig Rods (the 722). It shares the same power rating, but that's where the comparison ends. The 842 has a fast taper for long-range casts and the perfect blend of power and feel for deep-water jigging. When you sweep the rod, a lot of line moves-and that makes it a good choice for heavy-duty split shotting and light-duty Carolina rigs. It makes an excellent buzzbait rod if you prefer spin fishing over casting, and the 7-foot length aids in ripping minnow baits over deep-water humps and points. What's more, it handles wind and larger baits equally well.

SJR843    Length: 7'    Power: 3    Pieces: 1    Spinning
Here's an excellent all-around spinning rod. A great choice for northerns and big, deep-water bass, the 843 has a medium-heavy tip and a fast taper that deliver both long range casts and the power necessary to fish Carolina rigs. It's a good deep-water worm and jig rod, especially in tailwater situations where some current is involved. The quick taper gives you better control in the wind and increases hooksetting power for live bait applications. It also makes a nice lightweight striper rod, or if you enjoy simply lounging on the river bank, dunking worms for catfish, well, it'll fit nicely in a forked stick, too. Now that's versatility.

SJR844    Length: 7'    Power: 4    Pieces: 1    Spinning This powerhouse spinning rod is as comfortable in freshwater as it is in salt. It's our spin version of a Carolina-rig rod, with more than enough power to fish heavy cover and big jigs. It handles oversized baits well, and you can fly line small crabs a country mile when casting to cruising permit or small tarpon. Bass anglers will enjoy this rod for pitching jigs and worms around brush and tules, and it's powerful enough to sub as a light-duty flipping stick. After northerns and small muskies? No problem for the 844. This rod may be a beefy; but thanks to IMX, you'll swear you're using a 6-footer.

SJR941    Length: 7'10"    Power: 1    Pieces: 1    Spinning
Don't let the "one" power rating fool you. This rod's blank design is unlike any other spinning rod we make, and it's a lot more powerful than its rating sounds. Its unique design features a soft, flexible tip for tossing both bait and lures, but the magnum butt-section is very powerful, giving you total control. It has a lot of uses, but really shines as a light-duty saltwater rod for stripers. Then again, if your ideal day involves parking it on the riverbank and plunking for whatever, this rod also fits that bill perfectly.
