The Online Source for Washington Fishing Information

Truely American Made

Tackle Tour just did a review and article about the G. Loomis Factory, I thought it was very well written and reassured myself my pride of owning mostly all Loomis Rods.

It is just nice that the best built rods are made right here in Washington State start to finish. As far as reels go if the best reels in the world were made here then I would buy them as well, unfortunately they are not. There is not even a comparable reel made here in the states compared to overseas reels, and BTW I have never really ever said anything about reels other than what I thought was good value.

Not hell bent just proud to say the best rods in the world are made in the USA no less no more, if you cant except that then jump into your chinese floatation device and flipper away!

Not to stir the pot, but if you're so hell bent on an American made rod, who is making the reels you use? Abu, Daiwa, Shimano? Isn't that contradictory? Just asking is all
