Longer rods for skipping Senkos…
I sold 7 ft 842s MF spinning rod to and replaced it with a 872s 7’3 M Extra Fast. I was pretty proficient at skipping with the 7 footer. The extra length of the 872s makes skipping a little more challenging. I can still do it, just not as well. Will I get better with practice or is a 7'3 rod simply ...

Re: New Poison Adrena
I use the 6’7 ML for small poppers, small Keitechs, Ned rigs, and smaller jerk baits.

Re: All things considered
The answer is yes. The Exprides are fantastic rods. The 6’11 medium is my favorite. Perfect jerk bait. Good for top water and many other things. 7 M spinning is also a great rod.

Re: Megabass rods keep breaking while casting
I have owned Megabass rods in the past. I still own a Whipsnake. There are too many posts about breakages. You don’t see that with Loomis products. Personally, if I’m going to spend Destroyer kind of money, I want the peace of mind from a lifetime warranty. Making a thin blank that is ultra sensitiv...

Re: Confirmed new Nrx coming out !!
CfDOc, I know what you you mean. I have owned several Orochis (including a Whipsnake now), but never a Destroyer. I might be off base on the Destroyers, but it has been mentioned on this and other forums. A tackle shop where I buy a lot of rods echoed the same sentiment. I might still buy one at som...

Re: Confirmed new Nrx coming out !!
I agree with most of Freelancers points. However, the reel seat and balance are much better in my opinion. Craftsmanship is maybe a littler better, still not what it ought to be. I despise the hook keeper. The rod weights (873CRR and 872s) are the same as the previous models, but balancer better. It...

Re: New Poison Adrena
You can try and it and see, but I suspect it will not be enough power for what you are wanting to do. I was using it as a jig rod and ended up getting an NRX+ instead. I no longer have the 7’2 H., but still have a 7’3 MH, 6’11 M+ , 7’4 H and. 6’7 ML spinning. The 7’2 H will fish closer to a MH in my...

Re: Free Rig
I have had a lot of success with a 1/4 ounce free rigged D-Shad. I have also caught them on a Senko and 8.5 in Power Worm. I trying it out instead of T Rig or Carolina rig. So far, so good. Anyone else do this? I have been using a 3/8 weight.

Re: Confirmed new Nrx coming out !!
The reel seat is one of the biggest improvements. It is very comfortable. It isn’t as quite as comfortable an the Adrena reel seat because there is more exposed blank, but much better than the old NRX reel seat.

Re: Confirmed new Nrx coming out !!
It seems about the same, but I have had a chance to fish with it much. Only about 15 minutes. I plan to fish with it this weekend.

Re: Confirmed new Nrx coming out !!
Ok. I can give a brief assessment. I got my new NRX+ 873CRR last night. I took it out to a local community dock for a little testing. It was paired with an Antares and spooled up with Hitena 43lb Supercast braid. Here are my initial observations: Fit and Finish: Better than the old NRX. The new desi...
