To all the Loomis fans, does your opinion of only buy the top-notch loomis rods exclude the Moddybacks? I, myself am looking for a jig rod and obviously am a Loomis fan but have not tried the Mossyback ... I understand not paying for a GL2, but would you only buy an IMX/GLX?
If it helps, I am considering the G Loomis Mossyback Jig Rod, the Shimano Cumara or the St. Croix Legend Tourny Series ...

A mossy back is basicaly in between the GL2 and IMX in my opinion, the Mossyback is acceptable but I don't like the GL2 it does no compair.Originally Posted by LoomisLover
Never used any of the others you mention though so cant offer any comparison, I only own Loomis rods.

I think there is a big difference between the GLX and the mossyback. Im not saying the mossyback isn't a great rod - it is, but the GLX and even the IMX is a much better rod. Honestly if I were getting one of those you listed for a Jig rod, I would definitely go with the Cumara. It is probably the most sensitive jig rod of any of those. But if I was buying a jig rod for heavy jigs, I like the St. croix. I have a legend tournament that I use for 3/4 ounce jigs in the summer on ledges. The only reason I got that over the Cumara is because the cumara's action was too light.
