Al tests out the LOOP 7X 9126 model and fishes on the Helmsdale and North Esk in the early spring.
We found it to be a super versatile rod in many situations, from fishing integrated scandi lines on the river Helmsdale where shorter casts are often necessary and keeping mobile working the fly and covering lots of water. To fishing skagits and fast sinking tips on the North Esk in February, this rod can handle any line you throw at it and is perfectly suited to small to medium sized rivers int he spring and autumn or as a low water rod on large rivers.
Handling large fish and casting into Gaelforce winds is exactly what this short powerful does best.
