Ben, if you’re like me, something else will come along that you’ll just have to have. But, what you have now sounds really awesome. Congrats.

Ben: There's no explaination of "THE ITCH"! When you get the itch, you just have to scratch it. There's no good explaination, so why bother. You are just perfecting your skill level, which has no top. Keep on, keeping on! I suppose that is why many skilled and talented fishermen take up fly fishing! Just Sayin....RJS

When I got my first GLX , the rods I used to really like seemed a lot less sweet.
I still have my first G Loomis. A 6-3 ML Bronzeback spinning with a Stradic CI 4 . My first “ High end “ set up . 50th birthday present to myself.
Still use it from time to time. Will never part with it

Ben: Why do men buy Bentley's or Rolls Royce automobiles? Because they can, I guess. Once, back in the late 1980's I was attending a Rotary club meeting in Mission TX. We had a guest visitor who had a Bentley and after the meeting we were talking and he let me sit in his vehicle. He was the owner of a foreign spice importerting biz and could afford this level of an expensive vehicle. It was a super set of wheels, but far out of my range. Just Sayin...RJS

Ben, congrats on the rod. I did some research and I must say this is definitely high end. Nano silica resin system. 15% lighter than the Glx and 20 % stronger.More impact resistant density carbon. Impressive, G loomis is awesome. Not to mention nickel titanium guides and a skeletonized reel seat. Supposed to be like holding a blank rod in your hand and being able to feel the tip. Highly sensitive. I’m thinking your blog just set me back a few bucks. Lol.

I don't remember, I don't think I ever paid for one. You remember I was the only son in law of a partner in Bomber Bait Co., and was privileged to a lot of free trackle. Just Sayin...RJS
