Description
G.Loomis NRX+ LP 690
9' 6 weight, four piece fly rod
The NRX 690+ LP 690 is a terrific choice for an all-around rod on large western rivers like the Madison and Yellowstone where versatility is key. We have come to really enjoy this rod on the Henry's Fork in Idaho as it handles wind and big fish exceptionally well while still making easy work of delicate presentations. Also, this rod should be in every serious angler's hand on their next trip to New Zealand where long-leaders and accuracy are essential, but one still needs a soft tip for fine tippet protection.
Dedicated dry fly anglers know the deal. Your job? Flawless presentation. The troutâs job? Avoiding introduction.Â
Picky and particular, feeding trout arenât often available to receive offerings sent in a straight-line path. Perfect, delicate drifts require slinging unconventional slack yielding casts, and drag inducing micro-currents, obstacles, and other naturally occurring variables can limit tactical opportunity. When success rests on a razorâs edge, take control with balanced fishing tools built to boost effectiveness in ultra-technical scenarios.Â
NRX+ LP is the ultimate tool for accurate and effective dry fly presentation. Tailored for supreme versatility over a wide range of casting techniques, actions are sweet, smooth, and stable, with plenty of âspankâ when conditions call for an additional pinch of power.
Technology
Dynamic Recovery Technology is a blended system of several elements. Our all-new Mega Modulus+ graphite matrix and GL8 resin system, combined with the industryâs most advanced compound taper construction process, creates crisp actions with smooth, rapid recovery. The key to achieving these performance characteristics is a reimaging of our proprietary Multi-Taper Design technology. Traditionally used to enhance durability and swing weight, the G. Loomis design team developed a method of applying a similar process to improve loading efficiency and feedback. This widens the power and recovery âsweet spotâ, providing performance with feel regardless of casting distance.
- Mega Modulus+ matrix is 15% lighter than original NRX, improving overall balance and feel, and limits casting fatigue
- Smooth, rapid recovery, allowing casters to develop stable loops with less effort
- GL8 resin possesses the same strength and impact resistance as past resin systems with less material. This reduces overall weight, and ultimately, limits fatigue
- Materials dampen quickly, delivering a crisp, positive feel in hand
