JUST IN – NEW G. Loomis Racing Hats and More…

Hi Everyone,
First, I want to tell you about our new newsletter schedule. Actually, we’re reverting to the old schedule. We’re going to go back to sending newsletters during the weekend. So when you get another newsletter from us this weekend, that’s what’s going on.

And I want to tell you about the new hats. Well, we knew about them in July, but just this week we are the first to receive the NEW G. Loomis Racing Style Hats in Red-White-Black, Blue-White-Black, and Yellow-White-Black. Folks, these are Nice Hats. They all have the very comfortable Velcro adjustable back strap (no head gouging buckle), a made-for-comfort inner headband, and even a G. Loomis logo inside tag. The best part is they are only $22.00 each with very low shipping cost.

Now, if these are not your style, then we suggest the new G. Loomis Tactel Olive hat. Same great features with a 2-tone Skeleton Fish on the front and the “radical” G. Loomis logo on the outside of the Velcro adjustable band. Very comfortable in an understated way (I really like this hat).

Our final hat is one “loud” hat, but not so if you’re a hunter. Introducing the G. Loomis Hunters Orange hat. Yes, it is orange. Boy, is it orange. Great hat with a two-tone Skeleton Fish patch on the front, camo piping on top, and a camo material on the bottom (underside) of the bill. No one, and I mean no one, will miss you in this bright boy.

FEFJO Lives … offer still going on….

Just a reminder that the Free G. Loomis Tournament Jacket Offer is still going on. Just buy $789.00 in product and we’ll include this $85.00 jacket absolutely free. That’s just about one RoaringRiver GLX fly rod or 2 GLX spinning / casting rods or one set of G. Loomis  Escape Luggage. This is our most popular jacket and a great cold weather warmer. This wonderful jacket is wind and water resistant, has a full-zip front and a snap down wind flap. Color is a beautiful black with embroidered skeleton fish logo on the front and a radical G. Loomis logo across the back. It’s a great jacket for the fall or even winter when layering, and it’s available in S, M, L, XL, and XXL.

FEFJO

To get your very own FEFJO, all you have to do is buy $789 worth of merchandise or gift cards from American Legacy. Then pick out your Loomis Tournament Jacket, enter the FEFJO promotion code 313147, and just like that, your FEFJO is on its way to you. You only pay a small ($7.00) shipping charge.

( Note: You must order from our web site or via phone, fax, or mail. EBay auctions and EBay Store orders are not eligible.)

G. Loomis Prices Increase Jan. 1, 09

I guess we shouldn’t be too surprised given everything else is going up in price. As of January 1, 2009 G. Loomis will increase prices between 5% to 15% on almost all rods, blanks, and accessory items. Currently our inventory is very strong, so now is the time to buy. If you are in the UK, Europe, or Australia I know the currency fluctuations have made Loomis more expensive, but please keep in mind our Very Low Shipping Costs, the Free Jacket Offer, and the impending price increase. All combined, it’s a very compelling reason to buy now.

Mystery “Yellowfish” Identified as a…….Yellowfish

We got this note from our pal Lee Waters (former Rhodesia/Zimbabwe & South Africa) regarding our latest “mystery fish”: In your question in your latest newsletter asking if anyone knows the proper name of the South African “Yellow Fish”. They are actually called Yellowfish, they are an indigenous South African species and there are a couple of sub-species (Largemouth Yellowfish (Labeobarbus kimberleyensis) and Smallmouth Yellowfish (L. aeneus) . Recently they have almost overtaken Trout as the premier fresh water fly angling species in South Africa. I have included a link to an article penned by my cousin Kevin Smith on catching “Yellows” in the Vaal River. http://www.africanangler.com/fly_article.asp?id=454

Coming Soon, an explanation of Modulus, Sensitivity, Weight, etc. in Rod Building….

Keep watching our newsletters for some in-depth technical information about material modulus and how it is or is not an indication of quality and price. As we say here at American Legacy, “stay tuned”.

Holy Cow – It’s FEFJOHi Everyone,

It’s hard to believe, but the holiday season is here. Are you ready to start off with a nice big helping of FEFJO?

What? You don’t know FEFJO?

Why it’s only our soon-to-be-famous, First Ever Free Jacket Offer from American Legacy. That’s FEFJO, for the cognoscenti.

This is our most popular G. Loomis Jacket ever, the Loomis Tournament Jacket. Take a look at these photos here. We also have larger photos on the website.

This wonderful jacket is wind and water resistant, has a full-zip front and a snap down wind flap. Color is a beautiful black with embroidered skeleton fish logo on the front and a radical G. Loomis logo across the back. It’s a great jacket for the fall or even winter when layering, and it’s available in S, M, L, XL, and XXL.

Give the jacket to a friend and keep the merchandise. Or keep the jacket for yourself and give Loomis rods to your very best friend – or your best clients. Of course, you can just treat yourself to some very nice gear and a great FEFJO deal.

But what if you want more than one FEFJO? We’re not working for Ebenezer Scrooge here, so we’ve decided you can have as many as you like. Every order that totals to $789 or more qualifies for one FEFJO. But this offer is for a limited time. When FEFJO is over, it’s over for good.

So don’t wait. Get your FEFJO today.

Hi Everyone,  
 

G. Loomis just introduced a complete revised Escape Travel Rod Line for 2009. According to Gary Schaefer, Product Manager at G. Loomis and all around great guy, the new Escape Travel Rods offers improvements that you will really notice in the field. While Loomis has had these rods for many years, they needed to redesign them to better fit the needs of today’s fisherman.
