G. Loomis Backbounce Casting Rods are heavy-duty with a stiff tip for those times when the fish are smack dab in the heaviest current and you need a lot of lead. These rods give you the power necessary to lift the weight off the bottom and still have sufficient power to set the hook with authority.

Backbouncing is a special technique used primarily by Northwest steelhead and salmon anglers. To fish a pool or run, heavy lead is used to put your bait right on the bottom and, with the help of the current, literally bounce your bait downstream, keeping it right in the fish's face.

G. Loomis Backbounce Casting Rods are made in the U.S.A.
