I have the 101hg, I'm not sure how long it is.

Is the 201 handle longer on the conquest?

I might have to order one of them, the CF handle can go on my Metanium 13.

I also like the weight difference, but I just switched back to the gold original handle and it almost feels like
it balances the rod a bit better, its on the NRX 852.

I also kinda like the gold a bit more, but I wish the handle was a bit longer.

I just tried it, it don't work my handle is from hedge hog.

Oh nice, I might have to do that..

Thanks.

I use decoy, they seem well made and I have never had one brake.

BTW, you should be able to use the factory handle but and retainer with that handle if you wanted to keep it all gold.

I don't know what you mean, sorry.

Conquest 101hg sounds good

Just got mine today and took it out, didn't catch any fish but I did get some pictures of the sun set LOL.
Anyways, it casts like a dream and is SUPER smooth.

Just throwing out some options..

Smoooothness, love it and its pretty damn small, it also casts senkos like a rock star. Now I just need some HH air bearings and a shallow spool to make her complete. holds exactly 150 yards of 15lb Pline TCB 8 braid.

I can't seem to find the schematics on the shimano north america site???

Good to hear.

Got a hedge hog carbon fiber handle for it and some RCS cork grips

What megabass rods compare to the NRX in sensitivity?

I been looking at the XX rods but I'm not sure since I can't hold one, also I'm looking for a rod similar to the NRX 852.

Thanks for any info.
