LOOP Opti River

Home > Rods > Single-Hand Rods > LOOP Opti River

The LOOP Opti River is a five piece 7-weight rod developed for salmon and steelhead fishing in flowing water. It's deep action makes it perfect for long underhand casts in tight spots. As for overhand casting, you'll be amazed by the power in this rod. Just watch the video in the tab below to see what we mean. The Opti River also comes with the patented X-Grip. A little gun-shy about a hexagonal grip? Don't be! We've absolutely fallen in love with the X-grip. Although a little unusual upon first grasp, you'll find it quite comfortable and the comfort lasts all day long. It leaves your hand/forearm much less fatigued and requires much less effort to maintain a secure grip. Made with Cross Weave technology it is as durable as it gets.

    LOOP Multi Reel

    Select options
    $79.00 – $319.00

    LOOP has always been known for designing the highest quality fly reels on the market. When LOOP set out to create a series of “die-cast” reels, they knew they had to be built to the same standards as their other great reels.

    So, they made them completely waterproof and used the same Power Matrix Drag System that is incorporated in their top-tier machined reels. The inter-workings of the new Multi Reels are of the highest standards, these reels will last a life time. The LOOP Multi Reels are offered in a price range that will allow anglers of all walks of life to own a fly reel that we feel proud enough to put the Loop name on.

    LOOP Opti Coast

    Select options
    $599.00

    We absolutely LOVE this rod! The LOOP Opti Coast is designed to handle the windy conditions found on the coast. The strong, crisp and quick action cut through the wind and allow you to touch those hard to reach rips. Both models feature our patented X-Grip handle and the blanks are made with LOOP's cross-weave technology. Never tried the X-Grip and a little gun-shy? Don't be! We've absolutely LOVED the X-grip. Although a little unusual upon first grasp, you'll find it super comfortable and the comfort lasts all day long. It requires much less effort to maintain a secure grip and leads to less arm fatigue at the end of a long day of casting.

    NOTICE: This rod is definitely not just for salt! The Opti Coast makes for a KILLER streamer rod in both the 6wt and 7wt – it's been our go-to meatchucking stick. In fact, when looking for a streamer rod, the Opti Coast easily rivals the Cross S1 690-4 and 796-4 (which are also quite awesome!).

    LOOP Andersson Signature

    Select options
    $665.00

    “For many years I was asked to design my own flyrods. Here is the result – the Signature-series, made from the same fibre and technology as the Opti-series. The rods have a somewhat deeper action that bends down through the handle when fully loaded, together with a short piston stroke that allows an early stop.

    The rods are easy to use and suit all kinds of fly-fishers, but give you, who have the technical abilities, an improved angle performance – without any loss of power during the forward cast. To fish with the Signature-rods is like poetry for your body and soul. You can almost feel how the rod is speaking to you, then you just hang on.”

    Göran Andersson

    Rod-designer

    His words don’t lie. When fully loading this rod you can feel the flex right down into the cork. Göran Andersson is a legend and his experience and knowledge really shine through when you put this rod into the hands of someone that knows what to do with it!
