Re: NRX Wish List

The GLX 844C just might be my all time favorite rod. We're it ever available in an NRX(preferably full cork) I'd no doubt own a pair of them.

Really looking forward to hearing and seeing more about this reel. I've got a rod sitting idle--just trying to decide between the fx68 and the sv.

Re: casting drop shot rod

Abu Garcia Fantasista Yabai is a blast with which to fish. I use mine for dropshots, small slider grubs, and 3" senkos.

I'm all about the NRX's, but this is overkill for me.

Re: New G.Loomis rods

I'm particularly looking forward to getting my hands on an 842C. Would have really loved to see an844, maybe even with full cork...maybe next year.

Re: Mono suggestions

For me, Senshi handles about as well as any line on the market, but it's abrasion resistance is less than acceptable. If I had to pick my favorite all around mono it would be Super Natural all day.

Re: Current Favorite T-Rig Worm & Hook ?

The ring fry is a helluva little bait. Fished weightless it's a nice change of pace to a senko. It's also my all time fave c-rig plastic.

I keep several of each of the spool tension cap parts. I always seem to lose the little e clips and spacers.

Re: Interested in new revo

Good lord! I remember when my Quantum Iron was "super high speed" at 5.8:1. I've been thinking about dumping my 8:1 STX cause it's too fast for me.
