Loomis Asquith combines Shimano’s proprietary Spiral X blank technology—rolled in Kumamoto, Japan—with high-end finishing in Woodland, Washington. The result is a high-modulus saltwater rod that delivers exceptional line speed, tight wind-cutting loops, and incredible energy transfer with minimal casting fatigue. The 10wt configuration is widely regarded as the ultimate crossover stick for big-game saltwater applications, offering the backbone required to turn powerful fish without sacrificing tip sensitivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You Need This Rod\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are heading into high-wind coastal environments or stepping onto the skiff for tarpon, permit, beach stripers, or giant redfish, you need a rod that resists blank twist and tracks with pin-point accuracy. The Spiral X core eliminates ovalization under heavy loads, giving you the lifting power to haul large saltwater patterns into the wind and pull stubborn fish out of deep water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pre-owned outfit is in \u003cb\u003eGood condition\u003c\/b\u003e. The blank exhibits light cosmetic finish scuffs and minor boat-deck chatter from riding in skiff rod racks, but maintains complete structural integrity. The cork grip shows normal handling wear and light discoloration from typical use. The titanium stripping guides and snake guides are fully aligned, the ferrules seat snugly, and the anodized aluminum reel seat operates smoothly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAction:\u003c\/b\u003e Fast \/ High Line Speed\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/b\u003e Spiral X Core with High-Modulus Graphite Outer Layers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eManufacturing Location:\u003c\/b\u003e Blank rolled in Japan; Finished in Woodland, Washington, USA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStorage:\u003c\/b\u003e Includes Original Aluminum Rod Tube and Cloth Logo Sock\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"G Loomis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54317447512432,"sku":"34504560","price":749.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0519\/2659\/7827\/files\/IMG_0861.jpg?v=1789497376","url":"https:\/\/www.stillwaterflyshop.com\/en-au\/products\/asquith-9-10wt-trade-up","provider":"Stillwater Fly Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
