Its a great rod...light and sensitive. Quote
Hot n Tot Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Personally I would look closely at the SJR782 in GLX Quote
Super User FishTank Posted June 6, 2008 Super User Posted June 6, 2008 The BSR803 GLX would make for an amazing rod. Quote
ABC123 Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 The BSR803 GLX would make for an amazing rod. Yes it is! It is my rod for light plastics and worms. Very highly recommend it as a light lure, ultra sensitive, spinning rod with plenty of backbone. Quote
The_Natural Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 BSR802 is my all-around spinning choice. The DSR820 is just a little to whippy for me. The SJR782 is nice also, but the BSR802 is just very crisp with the perfect amount of power. Quote
MNGeorge Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 BSR802 is my all-around spinning choice. The DSR820 is just a little to whippy for me. The SJR782 is nice also, but the BSR802 is just very crisp with the perfect amount of power. I have one in the Mossyback Series that I bought on the flea market here. Actually got a brand new one when the one I bought came broken, but that is beside the point. When I first got it, I thought it was too light for what I wanted, but after fishing a time or two, I am quickly coming to love this rod. Light enough to handle the lightest finesse stuff, but the butt comes into play nicely and with plenty of power. Quote
bronzeback01 Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 I have a bsr 803 mossyback and it's my favorite rod I LOVE IT ! I can't imagine what the GLX must be like. Quote
Fish MD Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 I have the 7'1" senko rod BSR852. I love it so much I have a picture of it in my wallet. Quote
The_Natural Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 I have the 7'1" senko rod BSR852. I love it so much I have a picture of it in my wallet. Yep...802/852 Pick your poison. The 2 power BSR's have won me over. The 3 power rods are good, but they encroach on casting reel duty...those are powerful dudes! The 2 power is more of a traditional spinning power, albeit with a super-ridiculous fast action that is notoriously BCR. Quote
lubina Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 I have the 7'1" senko rod BSR852. Highly recommend. Quote
jignfule Posted June 11, 2008 Author Posted June 11, 2008 thanks for the imput. They do make a heck of a rod Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted June 11, 2008 Super User Posted June 11, 2008 Welcome aboard! It looks like you found the advice you were looking for from some guys that really know their G. Loomis rods! 8-) Quote
