Q&A

There are other high-modulus graphite rods as tough and durable as the GL³, but not one of them can match it for weight. The G.Loomis® GL³® Classic Popping Casting Rod's featherweight construction generates increased casting distance, greater accuracy, more sensitivity—and less fatigue than costlier rods.

Rated 5 out of 5 by discerning2 from Sensitive, strong, everything you could ask for! I paired this rod with a Shimano Chronarch 150, and the first thing I noticed was the outstanding sensitivity with less weight than my Fishing Tackle Unlimited "Green Rods", which are great in their own right. The sensitivity allows you to feel fish when they are biting very light, and yet it has the beef to handle oversized Redfish (over 28" in Texas). I own a G2, and this G3, while not as stout, has every bit the backbone. Yes, this is an upscale rod, but you know, sometimes you get what you pay for.

Rated 5 out of 5 by scootz from Great Rod I purchased this rod, after having purchased 2 IMX rods. Honestly wish I had tried these rods first. I know the IMX is supposed to be a step up from the GL3, but now, owning them both, I'll take the GL3 every time. By far the better of the two IMO. Save the extra 40 bucks or so, and get yourself a GL3. I promise, you wont be sorry. Bob

Rated 3 out of 5 by SeaBananaSlug from Quality doesn't match the price Coupled it with a 6500 CL3 Abu and fished with it on the Sea of Cortez off of Rocky Point and well it worked like a charm catching cabrilla bass and corvina. I got home, cleaned it up and noticed that my reel moved side to side. The reel seat came loose. Using such a high quality blank with cheap or not enough adhesive on the reel seat is a complete turn off from this brand. Forget their warranty, I wasn't about to deal with shipping it back to them. I ended up drilling a hole were the reel is mounted and pumped a heck of a lot of Gorilla super glue into it. Now it's a perfect rod!! Won't buy another Loomis rod, Ever!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by SweetTater from wow. I bought this rod at the beggining of the year and was very anxious to use it. I was not let down in the least. I paired it with an Abu Garcia REVO sx and it is by far my most favorite rod. The sensitivity is amazing. Im catching fish after fish and feeling every rock, stump, grass, and gravel. From now on when im looking for a sensitive rod with great strength, im going right to G. Loomis.

Have new Daiwa TD Pro and Quantum PT Energy. How would this rod sit w these low profile reels?

Asked by: UKWildcat

I am primarily saltwater, and paired this with a Shimano Chronarch 150, and it is outstanding. It has the sensitivity to feel the slightest pickup, but the beef to deal with a 15lb Redfish. The low profile reels fit very well, but the Chronarch is even lighter than the two you are suggesting.
