2011 ICAST Best of Show Winners

The G.Loomis GL2 Rods were voted Best New Freshwater Rod at the 2011 ICAST Show.

Completely updated and improved, the new G.Loomis GL2 Jig & Worm Casting Rods offer an excellent blend of performance and value, and now include several key improvements, as well as a full lineup of technique and application specific models.

The Abu Garcia REVO MGX Casting Reel was voted Best New Freshwater Reel at the 2011 ICAST Show.

The next generation of the REVOlution continues with the 5.4-ounce Abu Garcia Revo MGX Casting Reel. Significantly more compact and ergonomic than any reel on the market today, the Revo MGX also delivers lightning fast retrieves, including the fastest gear ratio ever produced in a casting reel, an astounding 7.9:1.

The Berkley NanoFil was voted Best Overall and Best New Fishing Line at the 2011 ICAST Show.

Not a Mono. Not a Fluorocarbon. Not a Braid. Berkley's NanoFil Uni-Filament Fishing Line is the next generation of fishing line and in a class all its own. Constructed from gel-spun polyethylene, much like a superline, it consists of hundreds of Dyneema nanofilaments that are molecularly linked and shaped into a unified filament fishing line.

The Koppers Live Target Hollow Body Frog was voted Best New Soft Lure at the 2010 ICAST Show.

Perfect for twitching along the tops of pads and grass mats, the Koppers Live Target Hollow Body Field Mouse features intricate, lifelike detailing so realistic you'd swear it was alive. Offering anglers a deadly alternative to the hollow bodied frog, it will catch bass in any lake or waterway in the US.

The Sebile D&S Crank was voted Best New Hard Lure at the 2011 ICAST Show.

The Sebile D&S Crank is an innovative deep diving crankbait with Sebile's revolutionary Gravity Snagless Hook System. Instead of two treble hooks dangling from the bait, the D&S Crank has only a single EWG hook connected to the rear of the bait. As the lure is moving through the water the hook remains in-line with the lure's flattened tail, greatly reducing the liklihood of snags.

The Power Pole Blade was voted Best New Boat Accessory at the 2011 ICAST Show.

Thinner, lighter and more aerodynamic, the new Power Pole Signature Series Blade Edition features a new brushless motor and high-flow pump system for even faster and quieter deployment. It also includes wireless remote control, installs in less than an hour on most boats, and is the first Power Pole to reach 10 feet in depth.

The VMC Spinshot Dropshot Hooks was voted Best New Terminal Tackle at the 2011 ICAST Show.

The revolutionary VMC Spin Shot Drop Shot Hooks completely eliminate the line twist that has long plagued drop shot rigs, while also improving the action of your baits, and improving hooksets. By incorporating a light, but super strong, high-carbon steel spinning system into their premium 7119 drop shot hook, the VMC Spin Shot guarantees 100% free rotation and mobility of the hook with any size bait.

The Humminbird 1158c was voted Best New Electronic at the 2011 ICAST Show.

The 1158c Combo features a huge 10.4" display with LED backlight, DualBeam PLUS sonar with up to 8000 Watts PTP power output, GPS Chartplotting with built-in ContourXD maps, and advanced Fishing System capabilities.
