Just ordered this bad boy. Will report back with findings and field testing experience. Nowhere to go handle one so buying blind but I think it'll be all good. Sold a mossyback bcfr894 to get this so line/lure is comparable.
Anyone have this rod?

I'm sure you will love it. Can't wait to read your review on the rod. I have the 895 and have to say this rod is great. Pull big fish out of some nasty stuff with no problem.

I'd love to pick one up… hopefully in the summer!
would love to read your review!

I am hoping the 7'11 is versatile... I am mainly going to flip rock ledges but I want something I can put the hammer down and punch with too... Hopefully it's lure weight range is a little larger than listed
Re: G Loomis 953C FPR glx
Just got here... Rod feels great in hand. Length is going to make flipping and punching a breeze. Right now it is rigged up with a curado 200e7 and 50# sufix 832. Balances a couple fingers above the reel. Damn good for 7'11". Have a 1/2 oz mop jig and 4" chigger craw and that's probably 3/4 oz total. No use yet but feels really sensitive dragging the tile from my second story. Haha
