Some interesting stuff on that list!

Where can your read about the new electronics for the boat? Wondering about changes to the ipilot.

[buzbunni]

Thx for posting dtro.

Being a gear junkie (do I like the gear more than actually angling? maybe ), I just can't get enough of this stuff.

Ooooh! Like that VMC spinshot. Cool.

How did the G loomis GL2 get best in show freshwater rod?

If memory serves me correctly, the i-Pilot changes are a new remote control, and more room in memory for more recorded tracks and anchor locations.

How did the G loomis GL2 get best in show freshwater rod?

Must have changed something big time as there seems to be quite a few better sticks out there.

[Wish-I-Were-Fishn]

Are they going to discount the older style then? I want one.

[mww24]

thats what I'm thinking to Harvey. Last year the NRX rod won best in show. How do you go from a five hundred dollar rod to a 150 dollar rod in one year? interesting. What kind of GL2 you looking for wish I were fishin?

I just checked out the loomis site. The GL2 is now a separate lineup. Its technique specific rods. Mainly bass rods. I guess to compete with the mojo bass and dobyns entry level price points. Looked like nice rods from the pictures

[Wish-I-Were-Fishn]

Actually I was responding to perchjerker regarding the ipilot motors, but I'll take the rod too!

What's up with that? What does Shimano have to do with Abu Garcia?
