CFF is offering a wonderful rod and reel combination just in time for trout season!

This is a G.Loomis Rod (Pro 4x 9’ 5wt) with a Sage 2250 reel (~$500 total).

From the G.Loomis website: “As with our PRO4x trout rods, we’ve mirrored our NRX taper designs with the PRO4x salmon and steelhead rods to gain a noticeable reduction in weight, especially in the tip-section. This not only makes the rod fish lighter – a much improved swing-weight – but increases the rate of blank recovery for better casting distance and accuracy. Proprietary processes in both blank and rod manufacturing allow us to provide optimum performance in key areas to improve line control and mending. They will handle sink-tips, shooting heads and of course, full floating lines with ease. Available in 9 & 10-foot lengths, these are not only high performance, but economical as well. As beautiful to look at as they are to fish, these are rods any fly fisher would be proud to own. It’s what you’ve come to expect from G.Loomis”

From the Sage website: “• SCS drag design • Large arbor for fast line pick up; Concave arbor for greater strength and capacity • Large machined one revolution drag knob with numbered and detented settings • Ergonomic machined aluminum handle • Easy conversion from left- to right-hand retrieve • Neoprene and embroidered ballistic nylon reel case”
