1459, Cameron rod question
Posted by Leif, Tue Jun-12-01 04:32 PM
i know that gloomis makes their blanks, but does anyone know what they would be equal to (gl2, gl3, etc.)? I thought I read that they were closest to an imx, but I weighed my gl2 8' flipping stick, and my 7'6" cameron flippin stick, and the cameron was heavier. so now i'm clueless. the cameron is xheavy, does that account for some extra weight? I would think so, but the loomis is 6 inches longer, so...

Get it from the source. Email Rick Heaton at sales@cameronrods.com or give him a call (918) 663-7000 ...
My biased .02c... the reason they're a little heavier is because of the extra (double footed) guides. Camerons don't use loomis top of the line graphite but a lot more care and thought are put into their construction than the factory loomises.
