Loop Tackle's AEG Series Fly Rods deliver the uncompromising durability and versatility that members of the Angling Expedition Group (AEG) rely on to catch monster trout from around the world. After three years of rigorous field testing in some of the most brutal fishing conditions any fly angler will ever face, the AEG Series Fly Rods were born. Because the combination of sun and water, wet and then dry, often leads to traditional cork handles falling apart, the AEG Series Fly Rods have handles with a blend of cork and composite material which makes them actually get better with time. The AEG 590 was resurrected from the late, great, Loop Grey Line series rod. Incorporating the latest graphite and glue technologies, Loop Tackle has recreated what is arguably the greatest 5-weight ever built, and at a price point even a ''Fish Bum'' can afford. The action is best described as ''fast, but with some love'', so it will deliver a streamer, but then turn right around and handle a dry fly with amazing accuracy. The AEG 696 was designed from the ground up to handle big trout, summer steelhead and bit bass. It loves big streamers, sink tips and indicator/nymph setups. Its medium/fast action is a pleasure to cast, even when weighted down from the subsurface techniques often used to pull the largest trout. Lake- and estuary-bound anglers will love this rod for its ability to cast an intermediate line nearly a mile, and bass anglers will see that no bug is too big.
