This won't work for G-Loomis, but it may help if you decide to try a different brand, but you may need to wait a couple of months.

I see where someone suggested a $100 Falcon rod... I have a falcon that I love... but only paid $49 for it. I got mine at Uncle Lee's at the turn of the year ... a couple of years ago. I watch for when the tackle gets marked down. You can save a bundle and get some very nice tackle to boot. As an example, this is the first year in 6 years that I have had to buy hooks. I bought a bunch of Owner hooks for less than half price at Wal Mart. This year was the first year I ran out and had to re-supply. I love shopping at Wal Mart in November for the mark downs!!!


So, the moral of the story is to watch places like Uncle Lee's and get the best of the best at close out prices at the end of each year.

Good luck,

Tight lines and God Bless
