GLX

CASTING AND SPINNING - SALMON & STEELHEAD

SPINNER

A unique, extremely fast-tapered casting rod designed with a soft tip and a powerful butt-section for trolling spinners in tidewater for salmon. GLX performance reduces overall weight dramatically and adds incredible sensitivity as the bite can be extremely light. Soft tip telegraphs spinner action to detect even the lightest bites - many times, nothing more than the blade stops spinning.

CENTER-PIN

GLX technology, along with virtually indestructible recoil guides, allow us to make these rods extra long, extra light and really sensitive. The extra length and moderate actions create positive line/lure control along with lengthy leader-manage- ment for natural, drag-free drifts. Special sections of slightly heavier, composite cork along with sliding ring reel seat allow positive reel placement for perfect balance.

DRIFT

When a steelhead is holding in a seam in the middle of the riv- er you need accuracy. When you get the chance to fish all day long, you want a rod that’s as light as possible. When the bite is normally so light it’s hard to tell it from the rocks, you really need sensitivity. That’s what GLX drift rods are all about.
