The G-Loomis IMX Steelhead Floating Rods are designed for use with the float fishing technique. A great technique for use when there are a lot of snags in the water or the fish are suspended. Float fishing requires a long, light, responsive rod so you can mend your line to maintain a drag-free drift and cover as much water as you can. These fishing rods provide extra long rear grips for added leverage and fish fighting control.
