My two favorite plug rods are

1) GL3 HSR 981C 8'2 (10-20) I sell more of these rods to local guides than any other rod. A good steelhead rod, an even better chinook rod.

2) GL2 MBR 941C 7'10 (8-17) Quckly becoming the #1 steelhead plug rod of choice. Light enough for hatchery runs and summer steelhead with enough power to handle wild fish as well and the accidental spring chinook. This rod also appeals to those who want a boat full of Loomis rods but don't want to have to sell their blood to do so. Just over $100 for each rod.

I think the greatest difference between these rods is that the 981 is also a great chinook plug rod and allows anglers the opportunity two fish two species. The 941 is a tad light to pull K16's all year. If I was buying one plug rod.... hands down the HSR 981. (Right Bob D. :-)) )))))
