Steve Rajeff shows off G.Loomis's new Pro-4X fly rod at the 2011 iCast show in Las Vegas. The rod won "Best Fly Rod" at the event.

Loomis's new Pro-4X fly rods were named the winner in the ICAST New Product Showcase 'best new fly rod' category at a special awards ceremony July 13.

The Pro-4X fly rod series includes rods for trout, salmon/steelhead and saltwater fishing, ranging from a short, delicate, eight-foot, 3-weight for small flies in small water, a powerful, nine-foot, 8-weight to handle winds on the flats, and a 10-foot 7-weight for long-cast needed steelhead rivers.
