G. Loomis NRX+ Spey Rod
The G. Loomis NRX+ Spey is a high-performance two-handed rod built to deliver power, line speed, and stable loops without sacrificing the feel and finesse that make Spey casting so rewarding. Its fast action and advanced compound taper provide the efficiency needed to handle changing winds, complex currents, heavy shooting heads, and the wide range of conditions encountered while chasing steelhead and salmon.
G. Loomis’ Dynamic Recovery Technology combines a high-modulus graphite matrix, advanced resin system, and Multi-Taper Design to improve loading efficiency and recovery. The result is a larger casting sweet spot with excellent feedback throughout the casting stroke. The rod loads smoothly, recovers quickly, and efficiently transfers energy into the line for tight loops, long casts, and precise control.

This rod performs exceptionally well in windy conditions. The feedback is sharp and the loops are tight and consistent. I’ve used it on steelhead runs and it handles heavy shooting heads without losing control. The casting feel is smooth and responsive.

Great for both beginners and experienced Spey casters. The recovery is fast and the rod maintains accuracy even in changing wind. I noticed a significant improvement in my loop consistency after switching to this model.
Warren Bond –
Solid performance in the field. The action is fast and the rod handles long casts well. A bit stiff at the tip, but that’s expected for a fast-action rod. Works well with a variety of line weights and shooting heads.
Leah Vance –
I’ve been using this rod for several weeks now and it’s become my go-to for salmon fishing. The Dynamic Recovery Technology really shows in tight loops and in rough water. Very reliable and precise.
