A two-piece, fast-action plug and back-bounce rod with plenty of power. Designed for use in the big rivers of Alaska for trophy Chinook salmon, this rod works well in light saltwater conditions, as well. If you're after really big salmon, this is a pretty fair drift rod, with more than enough backbone for shoreline fishing. But it really shines back-trolling large plugs like Kwikfish or Wiggle Warts. I have three of them

My favorite rod is a G-loomis HSR 982c 8'2" one pice 12-25# 1/2-5oz

Casting
A more powerful version of the G.Loomis plug rod, designed to fish larger plugs, this particular rod was developed for big fish areas like Tillamook Bay in Oregon or the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska, where you need bigger baits and more lead to be effective. Able to cast lures of up to a couple ounces and handle up to 5 ounces in a Trolling/mooching situation. The rod's long cork rear grip gives you the total control. ......Ross
