Our primary objective with the Q series was to design a range of high performance fly rods that suit a range of angling abilities. Available at a highly competitive price point, the series is finished in an aesthetic cool grey colour and available in seven single-handed models and two double-handed models. Q has surpassed even our own very high expectations, with each model’s action being specifically optimised for its particular line classification.
The series has been developed to offer user-friendly casting performance. Both in the hands of a novice caster beginning their fly fishing journey, right through to an expert angler looking for a superior value for money fly rod, Q will simply perform. Each rod excels in all forms of modern fly casting techniques and feels light and extremely responsive in the hand. If your looking to purchase your first ever LOOP fly rod or complement your existing collection, Q is built on the solid foundation of outstanding user-friendly performance.

The lightest of our Q rods enjoys a deep flex pattern in the blank during the casting cycle. This rod responds extremely well to long, smooth power applications when presenting the smallest of dry flies and nymphs to ultra wary trout and grayling.
This is the trout angler’s go to fly rod for a range of fly fishing techniques using dry flies, nymphs and streamers. The rod excels at all forms of modern single-handed fly casting and offers full contact with the fly line at every point through the casting cycle to present flies with ease.
This general purpose fly rod is well within its comfort zone fishing both floating and intermediate fly fishing techniques with woolly buggers, zonkers and streamers. The blank offers more structured backbone than lighter models and has ample energy reserve when throwing larger flies in challenging wind conditions.
Similar in flex pattern as the #6 version, this rod is designed for lightweight single-handed salmon fishing techniques and also for fishing cold-water coastal waters. The rod’s action performs seamlessly as a fast mid-curve flex pattern and allows full contact and total sensory feedback during casting power application.
Designed primarily for pike, muskie, bass fishing, the 9ft #8 is the perfect freshwater predator rod for throwing big flies at aggressive fish. The blank has a fast-actioned flex curve with huge power reserve when casting to the horizon is required. This model is also ideal for single-handed salmon fishing techniques.
The Q #9 model is a fast action rod totally at ease in a predator environment where large flies and long casts are a standard requirement. The blank stores huge amounts of power reserve throughout its length and will deliver flies to big pike and musky in challenging wind and water conditions.
Developed to excel at lifting fast sinking lines and large flies from the depths, the Q #10 rod is an excellent companion for the pursuit of freshwater predator fish. The fast actioned blank feels energised and responsive in the hand and can deliver heavy line and fly set-ups quickly and efficiently to aggressive pike, muskie and bass.
