Re: GLX 892C JWR

I love mine for underspins,scroungers,and small swimbaits. Not nearly as stout as a 852nrx to me.

Re: Shimano Loomis Conquest rods

My 904 with a Metanium mgl balances about a quarter inch forward of the hook keeper. My NRX 894 balances maybe a quarter inch further forward with same reel.

Re: Shimano Loomis Conquest rods

Fished today with mine. 904c with a Metanium MGL and 15# Tatsu. Caught 16 Spots tonight,biggest around 3. 3/16 shakeyhead with trick worm. Little overkill,got it for t-rig and jigs,but couldn’t resist fishing with it today. Wicked sensitive,can’t wait to go to Chickamauga this weekend!

Been Shimano for 25 years,never thought I would buy Daiwa! Bought the cheap Tatula about a month ago,that thing bombs cranks and top Water,pretty much unbacklashable. That’s the reason I asked about the Daiwa. Wanted you guys to say Shimano! Lol!!!
