G. Loomis Asquith 990-4 Saltwater - ROD1159

The G. Loomis Asquith 990-4 is a 9-weight, 9-foot rod built for demanding saltwater environments and heavy freshwater predators. It is designed to punch large flies through stiff coastal winds and deliver precise presentations to spook fast-moving fish like permit, stripers, or salmon. The fast action blank offers exceptional lifting power and quick recovery, providing the control necessary to fight strong fish while minimizing fatigue during long days on the water.

This rod features G. Loomis’s revolutionary Spiral X technology, a collaborative design with Shimano that utilizes a unique graphite wrapping process to eliminate blank twist. This construction results in efficient power transfer and unparalleled tracking accuracy, ensuring your cast goes exactly where you aim. Finished with premium titanium guides and a custom reel seat, the Asquith combines structural integrity with a featherlight feel that redefines high-performance fly fishing gear.
