The Pinnacle of Spey Casting. Unrivaled Power and Distance.
If you are looking to "Trade Up" to the absolute peak of two-handed performance, the G. Loomis Asquith Spey is the world's first rod series to feature Shimano’s proprietary Spiral X technology. While this rod retails for a staggering $1,635.00 new, this is a rare opportunity to own a legendary "long belly" cannon that can reach the far side of the biggest rivers on the planet.
Why You Need This Rod
The 15'0" 10-weight is the "Big Gun" of the Spey world. Designed for massive rivers like the Skeena or the Alta, the Asquith is built to launch heavy lines and big flies with a level of efficiency that has to be felt to be believed. The Spiral X construction eliminates blank twist (ovalization), meaning 100% of your casting energy is transferred into the line. This results in tighter loops, incredible tracking, and the ability to punch through heavy wind that leaves other rods folded over. Despite its power, it remains remarkably light in the hand for a 15-foot rod.
