EXPERIENCE G. LOOMIS WITH NEW E6X ROD SERIES –
30 RODS IN BOTH TECHNIQUE SPECIFIC AND CLASSIC ACTIONS
-- New for Spring Fishing 2015 – Designed around a performance platform with a
focus on weight, balance, sensitivity and action, anglers of all levels can
experience what G. Loomis is all about with the new E6X rods series, soon to be
available for spring '15 fishing action. The series includes 30 casting and
spinning rods, offered in both technique specific models with exacting actions,
and 'Classic' models with easy to cast, more forgiving actions for use with a
variety of lures.
The new E6X rod series introduces anglers to what G. Loomis rod designers refer
to a 'swing-weight', the proper rod balance needed when fishing 'tip up'
techniques like pitching/flipping and casting tubes, jigs, soft plastic
jerkbaits and drop shot rigs, and 'tip down' lures like crankbaits,
spinnerbaits or swimbaits. "Proper balance lets anglers concentrate on
what is happening on the end of the line, rather than the tip of the rod,"
said G. Loomis' Bruce Holt. "With the E6X series and the G. Loomis'
Multi-Taper Technology behind them, we can provide light, sensitive, yet
powerful rods for all types of bass fishing techniques – what anglers know and
come to expect form G. Loomis and all at a very
comfortable price."
There are 12 E6X technique specific casting rods designed for jig & worm
use, for flipping and punching, crankbait and spinnerbait specific, along with
four technique specific spinning models for small jigs, tubes and worms, plus
two drop shot spinning rods. Holt notes that both the casting and spinning jig
& worm rods have the needed extra-fast tips, the crankbait rods have the
needed slower, softer actions, while stiff, powerful actions are found on the
flip/punch rods and unique actions are featured on the spinnerbait, swimbait
and drop shot rods. The entire technique specific rods feature split grip
handles with cork grips, along with Fuji reels seats and guides.
The 12 Classic multi-purpose E6X models include six 'Mag
Bass' and flipping action casting rods, and six spin jig spinning rods. They
all feature fast tapers with powerful but-sections, load easily for casting
accuracy. All the E6X Classic rods come with full cork grips, Fuji guides and
Fuji exposed blank trigger reels seats.
"Offering both performance and value, just about all anglers can
experience what G. Loomis rods are all about," said Holt. "The rods
really become an natural extension of you, providing the fish-catching
fingertip sensitivity that anglers who know expect from G. Loomis rods. And
while we have a main focus on bass fishing, anglers will discover E6X rods that
have great actions and lengths for walleye, northern pike and inland striper
situations."
As with all G. Loomis rods, the new E6X rods are handcrafted in Woodland,
Washington USA. For more information, visit gloomis.com, call 800/GLoomis, or stop by your nearest G. Loomis tackle dealer.

Technique Specific Actions…
E6X 803C JWR -- Probably one of our best all-around bass rods, this 3-power
beauty is extremely versatile. While it's designed for casting jigs and worms,
but if you're looking for just one rod to do a lot of different things, you can
fish a spinnerbait or topwater with it as well. At 6'8" it's a great rod
for fishing in close quarters. It has an extra-fast taper that provides
excellent line and lure control, making it very accurate. E6X makes it surprisingly
powerful for a rod so light and you'll really appreciate the sensitivity.
E6X 852C JWR -- A light yet powerful 7'1" jig and worm rod designed for
fishing smaller baits and lighter line in deep, clear lakes where the fish are
a little more finnicky. Because of the lighter tip
and the magnum butt-section it makes a great buzz bait rod. It will cast an unweighted soft plastic jerkbait a country mile. When the
water is clear, the fish are spooky and you need to back off to be successful,
this is the right rod! E6X makes it light, sensitive and sneaky powerful.
E6X 853C JWR -- The do it all, medium-heavy casting rod designed to fish
medium-sized soft plastics, soft-plastic jerkbaits, 1/4 to 1/2-ounce jigs and
even big topwaters. The extra length (7'1")
increases tip-speed, which in turn, extends your casting range, helps you
recover line quicker and is a big help with hooksets. A great alternative for
fishing 4-5" hollow belly swimbaits., and also just a great all around
casting rod.
E6X 854C JWR -- Our "power" pitching stick designed for fishing in

stop him... quickly! E6X makes it light and sensitive - something you've come
to expect from G. Loomis.
E6X 893C JWR -- An extremely good medium-heavy jig & worm rod for areas

out of trouble. When you set the hook with this rod you move an incredible mount of line. E6X allows us to make it light and
sensitive. A great all-around deep-water bass rod!
E6X 894C JWR --If you are fishing deep water in heavy cover for big bass, this
rod you want. At 7'5" that extra length creates a longer-wider rod sweep
that not only increases the tip-speed for longer casts, but it also moves a lot
of line when you set the hook and that is a big advantage when you're trying to
keep those big bass out of the deep junk. It's almost like a flipping stick
with exceptional castability! E6X makes it light,
sensitive and strong!

smaller 4-7" soft, hollow belly swimbaits like Strike King's Shadalicous, the Basstrix and Yum's Money Minnow, it has a powerful butt-section for
extra-long casts and excellent hook-setting power. The tip is very responsive,

tail and you can feel even the lightest strike. Works well for any species that
will eat a swimbait, including stripers and pike.

bass to engulf the bait with plenty of reserve power to bring that
fish-of-a-lifetime to your boat!
E6X 845C CBR --Just the ticket for fishing medium-sized, deep-diving
crankbaits. It's extremely light, will cast a crankbait a country mile and so
responsive you'll wonder how we do it. It's designed with a soft flex to allow
your bait to work properly and absorb any move the fish makes. It's a great,
long-distance casting rod for throwing lipless baits and is surprisingly
powerful.
E6X 847C CBR -- When conditions dictate large deep-diving crankbaits like a 6XD
or DD22, this is a rod you'll really appreciate. It's an excellent choice for
fishing the grass and over humps in deep-water situations. It will handle
lipless cranks as well as any rod we make and talk about long-distance casts...
this is it!! E6X technology makes it light and powerful, yet still has that
soft crankbait flex to let the bait give you maximum performance and maximum
hook ups!

combination of power and flex… not too stiff, not too soft. Short casts, long
casts, under cover, over cover… it doesn't matter. You'll be able to see the
blades work by watching the tip. It's got all the right stuff and E6X
technology helps us make it extremely light and incredibly sensitive! The best
of the best in a spinnerbait rod!
E6X 820S DRS -- This E6X drop-shot rod features a light tip with a sneaky
powerful butt-section. It's designed for open water and depths up to 30'. It
really shines for smallmouth and spotted bass in those clear water lakes where
you need to downsize your line as well as your bait. When the bite gets tough
and the fish need something a little less intrusive, this is an excellent
option. The light tip telegraphs the bite and the powerful butt makes the
hookset very easy... just lift and let the rod do the work. It's fish-on and
they'll never know what hit them. Check out finesse fishing at its finest!!
E6X 822S DSR -- A slightly more powerful drop-shot rod designed for deep-water
and fishing around cover. Soft enough in the tip to be effective, yet powerful
enough to pull a good fish away from trouble. It's more powerful than our
"820" (0-power) and you can fish 10- or 12-pound line as deep as
60-feet if that's where they're holding. It's designed for fishing lakes like
Lanier or Mead where fish suspend in the brush and treetops. There's plenty of
power for moving big fish away from the junk and it still offers the ultimate
in a stealthy, finesse approach. Advantage angler!
