G. Loomis IMX-PRO BASS Jig & Worm Casting Rod

The G. Loomis IMX-PRO BASS Jig & Worm Casting Rod is purpose-built for the bottom-contact techniques where sensitivity, fast response and positive hook-setting power matter most.

Designed specifically for fishing jigs and soft-plastic presentations, the IMX-PRO BASS Jig & Worm lineup combines lightweight construction with the sensitivity needed to detect subtle bites and the backbone required to drive a hook home and control quality bass around cover.

For anglers who spend serious time fishing Texas rigs, jigs and other bottom-contact presentations, these rods deliver the focused performance expected from G. Loomis.

Purpose-Built for Jigs & Worms

Fishing a jig or soft plastic is all about maintaining contact with the bait.

You need to feel the lure working across rock, shell, wood, vegetation and changes in bottom composition—and then distinguish that contact from a subtle bite.

The IMX-PRO BASS Jig & Worm series is engineered specifically around those demands, providing the responsiveness and power needed for serious bottom-contact fishing.

TaperTec Blank Construction

G. Loomis uses TaperTec rolled blanks engineered to optimize weight, strength and action for the intended technique.

Rather than relying on a generic casting-rod blank, the taper is refined around the demands of jig-and-worm fishing.

The result is a lightweight, responsive rod with the sensitivity to transmit what's happening at the lure and the power to respond when a fish picks it up.

Bottom-Contact Sensitivity

Sensitivity is especially important when fishing jigs and soft plastics.

A quality fish may not always deliver an aggressive strike. Sometimes the only indication is a slight tick, added weight or simply something that feels different.

The IMX-PRO BASS construction provides a highly responsive connection to the lure, helping anglers detect those subtle changes and react quickly.

Fast Hook-Setting Power

Once you detect the bite, the rod needs to transition quickly from sensitivity to power.

The Jig & Worm lineup provides the backbone required to drive single hooks effectively and move fish away from cover.

That makes these rods particularly well suited for presentations where both bite detection and immediate hook-setting authority are critical.

Carbon-Infused CI4+ Reel Seat

A custom carbon-infused CI4+ reel seat creates a lightweight, responsive connection between the reel and blank.

Reducing unnecessary material and weight around the reel seat helps improve overall balance while maintaining the direct feel anglers want from a bottom-contact rod.

Fuji Alconite Guides

The IMX-PRO BASS lineup incorporates Fuji Alconite guides designed for smooth, efficient line flow and dependable performance.

The lightweight guide train complements the responsive blank while supporting the casting accuracy and control required when placing jigs and soft plastics around specific targets.

Lightweight Split-Grip Design

A lightweight split-grip handle helps improve balance and reduces unnecessary weight.

That's particularly useful for jig-and-worm fishing, where anglers frequently hold the rod in a working position for extended periods while maintaining direct contact with the lure.

Why Choose the G. Loomis IMX-PRO BASS Jig & Worm Casting Rod?

The IMX-PRO BASS Jig & Worm series is designed around one of the most important requirements in bass fishing: feeling what's happening at the end of your line.

The lightweight TaperTec blank provides the sensitivity needed to detect bottom composition and subtle bites, while the rod transitions into the power needed for a positive hookset.

Instead of asking a general-purpose casting rod to handle bottom-contact techniques, G. Loomis gives anglers a rod family specifically engineered around them.

Premier Tackle Take

The G. Loomis IMX-PRO BASS Jig & Worm Casting Rod is exactly the type of rod where spending more for sensitivity makes sense.

When you're fishing a moving bait, the strike is often obvious. With a jig or Texas-rigged worm, you may only feel a slight tick or notice that the bait suddenly feels different. A lightweight, responsive blank helps you recognize those bites faster.

For Florida bass fishing, these rods are particularly useful when working jigs and soft plastics around vegetation, docks, wood and other structure, where you also need enough backbone to get a fish moving once you set the hook.

If jigs and worms make up a major part of your bass fishing, the IMX-PRO BASS Jig & Worm series gives you the sensitivity and power those techniques demand.
