G. Loomis NRX 890-4 - ROD1126

This G. Loomis NRX 890-4 is the definition of a "do-it-all" powerhouse, built to handle the most demanding days on the flats or the river. Designed by Steve Rajeff, this 8-weight is engineered to deliver tight loops and high line speeds, making it an exceptional tool for punching large flies through coastal winds or turning over heavy bass bugs with precision. Whether you are targeting bonefish and redfish in the salt or chasing pike and steelhead in freshwater, the fast action provides the lifting power needed to control angry fish while maintaining enough tip sensitivity for accurate short-range shots.

The secret to the NRX’s legendary performance lies in its proprietary construction, utilizing a unique nano-silica resin system that increases durability while significantly reducing swing weight. This advanced matrix creates a rod that is 20% stronger and lighter than previous generations, giving you a distinct advantage during long casting sessions. The rod is finished with premium components, including crush-proof RECOIL nickel-titanium guides that bounce back after rough travel and a custom reel seat designed to lock your reel securely in place.

In Like New condition, this specific rod features the highly desirable "Green" aesthetic—a later release from G. Loomis that swapped the original bright blue wraps for a stealthy, traditional forest green finish. This creates a more understated look on the water without sacrificing any of the raw performance the NRX is famous for. For anglers who want top-tier performance without the original's polarizing colors, this is a rare opportunity to own a pristine example of one of the finest 8-weights ever made.
