Make no mistake about it, one thing Gary Loomis knows how to do is craft a really nice rod blank.  His company North Fork Composites creates blanks that are second to none in quality, design and action.  This 2 PC 7’0″ Fast action spinning rod features REC recoil guides at the customers request, custom turned Tennessee sliding ring style handle with red and silver wraps that I think fit very well together.  Primarily a trout rod fitted with an ultralight reel this rod has a most excellent action and sensitivity to it.  Combined with weight saving features this was a dream to build and most importantly what my customer was going for in his vision.
